In the literature of generative grammar, idiomaticity has been widely identified with noncompositionality. Such a definition fails to recognize several important dimensions of idiomaticity, including, among others, conventionality and figuration. We propose to distinguish IDIOMATICALLY COMBINING EXPRESSIONS (e.g.

In this article we argue that there is a large class of expressions, typified by plastic flower, stuffed animal and kosher bacon , that have a unique semantics combining compositional, idiomatic and decompositional interpretation.
