seological unities are often considered to be figurative phrases, as fresh as daisy, neither here nor there. according to a.v. koonin phraseological unities are also represented by proverbs (e.g. diamond cut diamond) and sayings (e.g. to die a dog’s death). 3. traditional combinations traditional combinations are made up of such words as may combine only with certain other words. sometimes the constituent elements of the phrase may be replaced by synonyms. in a traditional combination one or more words are used in their direct, non-figurative senses, e.g. to pay a visit to someone; to give (lend) assistance to someone; to strike (deal, inflict) a blow to someone. a.v. koonin bases his classification on a combination of functional (communicative), semantic and structural features. the main classes are based on the function the units fulfill in speech. they may be nominating (a bull in a china shop), interjectional (a fine, nice, pretty …
