THE TRANSITION FROM TECHNOLECT TO IDIOMATIC EXPRESSION IN MOROCCAN ARABIC.

Among idiomatic expressions, technolect finds its place in the daily interactions of Moroccans. Known for its technical, specialized, or scholarly nature, technolect can serve the function of shaping or reshaping our perceptions of the world around us. Through the use of figures of speech, such as metaphor or ellipsis, technolect enriches popular culture - represented here by idiomatic expressions - with lexical precision and a rich figurative field. In this way, technolect contributes to the construction of idiomatic expressions, moving beyond the often-restricted specialized sphere and integrating into popular linguistic productions.
