description Modified idiom or idiom with variation pose many semantic problems especially to non-native speakers of English language. It appeared that many non-native speakers of English language often find themselves loss in understanding the full meaning of the message while reading the context with modified idiom, and one of the reason of misunderstanding the message is the lack of familiarity of modified idiom.
