There is no literal idiom -- an idiom is a phrase that seems to mean one thing but actually means something else. The word "literal" means to take the words exactly as they seem to be.An idiom is a phrase particular to a language that is accepted for its figurative meaning, as in "That amazing shot blew me away." Everyone understands that this person means he was amazed. A literal idiom would be the usually humorous thing that happens when you take the idiom for its word for word, not accepted, meaning. That would mean that somehow the amazing shot actually created the air mass necessary to blow this guy away.
