Abstract

This article explores the role and impact of phraseological units in political discourse, focusing on the speeches of Xi Jinping. Phraseological units, also known as idiomatic expressions, are a significant component of political language, adding layers of meaning and cultural resonance. Through a detailed analysis of Xi Jinping's speeches, the study examines how these linguistic tools are employed to convey political ideologies, reinforce cultural values, and influence public perception. The findings reveal that Xi Jinping effectively uses phraseological units to enhance his rhetorical strategies, promote national identity, and articulate complex political concepts in an accessible manner. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the intersection between language and politics in contemporary Chinese discourse.
