Proverbs are little stories with a moral message; idioms are just a few words used to express a bigger idea.
Idioms are expressions that have a figurative meaning different from the literal meaning of the words used, while proverbs are traditional sayings that offer advice or wisdom. Idioms often have a meaning unique to a particular language or culture, while proverbs are generally known and accepted across different cultures.
Idioms can be confusing because they often have meanings that are different from the literal meanings of the words they contain. Additionally, idioms can vary between languages and cultures, making them challenging for non-native speakers to understand. Lastly, idioms are deeply ingrained in a language's use, so learning them requires familiarity and practice.
Phrases unique to a particular language are called idioms. These expressions often have a figurative meaning that is different from the literal translation of the words used.

Idiom:a group of words which, when used together, have a different meaning from the one suggested by the individual words (e.g. it was raining cats and dogs).
