An idiom is a group of words whose meaning put together is different from the meaning of
individual words. English is a rich language when it comes to idioms, they represent variety. For
foreign learners, idioms are problematic because even if they know the meaning of individual
words that compose an idiom the meaning of it might be something completely different.
The present study investigates Iraqi third year college students’ recognition of idioms. To
achieve this, the researchers have conducted a test which comprises three questions. Certain
conclusions are reached here along with some suggestions and recommendations.
In this Paper, There are attempts to compare the actual Observation Days in Decametric range (18-28 MHz), For Jupiter received by UFRO Earths’ station with the Prediction Observation Days that the Jupiter can be observed at Jupiter’s suitable location. The Jupiter’s Radio Observations actual data during year 2004, was taken from (Radio JOVE Data Archive website). The determination of the prediction days carried out by using the (Radio-Jupiter pro Jove Edition) software for Jupiter radio storms at UFRO station coordinates. Some Cases are considered according to Jupiter’s altitudes and Sun location at UFRO station Sky.
