How to put a dot over the "i", turn a fly into an elephant, and not bury talent in the ground? This book will help students not get lost in the woods and will tell you where the dog is buried. It contains winged words - figurative, concise expressions that have firmly entered our spoken and literary language. Winged expressions make our speech richer and more expressive, but we do not always know the history of their origin. Many of them are borrowed from literary works of Russian writers, myths and legends of Ancient Greece and the Middle East, the Bible. Also widely used are the names of historical figures and events, the titles of plays, paintings, and films. The book provides the etymology and the original source of the most famous words and expressions. The collection will be useful not only for students and teachers, but also for those who study the Russian language as a foreign language.
