This article examines idioms in the prose of the Slovenian writer Janko Kersnik as well as idioms in Kersnik’s letters. The broader idiomatic examination includes stock quotations, proverbs, sayings, and quotes. The extensive idiomatic material is organized by various types of idiomatic structures. Two types of idioms predominate among these: noun + verb idioms and adjective + noun idioms. This exhaustive overview of idiomatic material concludes with a statistical overview of idioms. This makes it clear that the use of idioms is a very strong component of Kersnik’s literary creation.Downloads
