No OneLook reference except us thinks this is an idiom. DCDuring TALK

An important collocation, but could refer to any of six senses of layman and more than one sense of term. Not idiomatic. DCDuring TALK 16:48, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, idiomatic, difficult to translate, figurative (etc.) Mglovesfun (talk) 04:27, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
