Abstract

This paper discusses the insertion of phraseology, specifically of Idiomatic Expressions (IEs), in dictionaries for Spanish learners. For this purpose, the importance of their inclusion is defended, since they are non-compositional, that is, their meaning cannot be understood from the totality of the individual meanings of the elements which compose them. The analysis was done as the following: IEs were searched in two lemmatic intervals of a hundred pages each in the dictionary SEÑAS, which is a small sized dictionary directed to speakers of Spanish as a Foreign Language (S/FL) of intermediate level. Based on the results that were found, these same IEs were searched in SALAMANCA, a large sized dictionary, monolingual and directed to S/FL speakers of advanced level. With this contrastive analysis it was possible to notice some failures in both dictionaries as the lack of use marks or the no concordance in form, extension or variants of IEs.
