Abstract

Geography is a discipline dealing with natural and social phenomena, and therefore with man’s immediate environment. It is therefore not unusual for geographical terms also to appear in idioms. This article is based on terms collected in the Geografski terminološki slovar (Dictionary of Geographical Terms, 2005). Idiomatic material was obtained using the FidaPLUS text corpus, and the Standard Slovenian Dictionary (SSKJ) was also taken into account. The idioms were sorted into two groups: those with a primarily geographical term as component, and those with a term shared by several disciplines as a component. A group of idioms containing a geographical name was also examined.
