dc.description.abstractABSTRACT The study explores the area of idiomatic expressions as important linguistic units for learners of English as a foreign language (EFL). The current study is an attempt to investigate the role of learning English idioms on EFL learners’ intercultural communicative competence. The study followed an Explanatory mixed method design. The tools used for collecting the data were a questionnaire and an interview. So, it is hypothesized that learning English idioms helps develop intercultural communicative competence. In order to test this hypothesis, a questionnaire was distributed at Abbas Laghrour University-Khenchela to a sample of 36 out of 178 Master One Students of English and aimed to measure students’ understanding and awareness of English idioms, and culture. As well, for the same purpose, an interview was conducted with six participants out of 28 EFL teachers in order to explore teachers’ views about the reality of idioms’ usage throughout the courses. The findings show that English idioms play a major role in improving students’ intercultural communicative competence.
