E3, Extending word use
Words have different meanings according to different contexts as well as different usages. Words also can be used as metaphorical meanings to express our feelings about things which creates images gradually. Even some metaphors become so popular that they are used as fixed phrases which is accepted as idioms. On the other hand, the words of metaphorical and idiomatic are become cliches which are not welcomed to people to be used.
E4. Word combinations
Word combinations or Collocations are words which co-occur with each other. For English speaker, it is seen as normal and acceptable since they are used to using that through custom and practice. The word combination made 'lexical phrases' which indicate fixed phrases for some words. Aside from phrasal verbs, collocations and compound words, language also go together with functional phrases, idiomatic or fixed expressions and verbal expressions. As we can see above, words are sometimes insufficient to account for the different kinds of meanings. A phrasal verb, for example, has a totally different meaning. In other words, they've created a meaning units by combining words.
