Margalit is on a distinguished road
Default New Idioms

Hello!
I' d like to have a piece of advice. I'm working a work at my university dealing with English idioms which are new and are not fixed in dictionaries yet ( desirably), I have chosen the fields such as bussiness and money as to my mind those fields are revelent and "open" for new vocabulary. But I don't know where I can find something new. Reading as many papers as possible is a time-consuming task.
Thank you for your advice.

Hi Margalit,

try here, Business Jargon and Buzzwords - rhymer.net or search for business jargon. There are some phrases which could be classed as idiomatic.
