This study explores how English idioms are shaped and interpreted through the interaction of embodied experience and cultural models. Drawing on cognitive linguistics, it argues that idioms are not arbitrary expressions but meaningful conceptualizations grounded in bodily experience and culturally shared knowledge. Embodied cognition explains how idioms originate from universal image schemas such as movement, force, and containment, while cultural models account for culturally specific values reflected in idiomatic meanings. The research demonstrates that English idioms encode key Anglo-American ideals, including individualism, time discipline, and emotional control.
