The present study aims to identify and analyse idiomatic expressions in the lyrics of \"Shake It Off\" by Taylor Swift. Idioms are a form of non literal expression which often pose a challenge for English language learners, due to the fact that their literal meanings are not easily discernible. Utilising a descriptive qualitative approach, this research analyses idioms based on Makkai's (1972) classification, which includes six types: phrasal verb idioms, tournure idioms, irreversible binomial idioms, phrasal compound idioms, incorporating verb idioms, and pseudo idioms. The findings indicate that the composition is replete with idiomatic usage, reflecting emotional meanings and social messages implicitly. A total offourteen idioms were identified, which serve to reinforce Taylor Swift's stylistic language and make the song an effective and contextual medium for the purposes of English language learning. It is anticipated that these findings will contribute to the development of language teaching, particularly with regard to the comprehension of idiomatic meaning within the context ofpopular culture.  \nKeyword : Idiomatic Expression, Lyrics, Song, Taylor Swift  \n1. INTRODUCTION  \nEnglish as a global language is undergoing rapid development, particularly through popular media such as music. A notable facet of acquiring proficiency in English pertains to the utilisation of idiomatic expressions, which frequently manifest within the lyrics of popular music. Idioms are expressions whose meanings cannot be translated literally, which makes their understanding a particular challenge for foreign language learners.(Rohmah, 2005)  \nIdioms, also known as idiomatic expressions, are informal language forms whose meanings differ from the literal meanings of the individual words. According to Halliday (M.A.K. Halliday, 2007), idioms are unique to each language and cannot be directly translated into another. (sinaga, herman, hutahean, 2020),(Biber, et al 2006) also note that idioms express meanings that are distinct from the literal definitions ofthe words they contain.  \nIt is evident that Taylor Swift, a prominent figure in the realm of music as a singer and songwriter, has garnered acclaim for her adept utilisation of idioms within her lyrical compositions. This skillful approach serves to fortify the message and emotional resonance of her musical works, thereby enhancing their impact on listeners. The song \"Shake It Off\" is oneof Taylor Swift's works that is not only popular on a global scale but also rich in idiomatic expressions, such as the phrase \"shake it off\", which means to forget or ignore negative things. This phenomenon underscores the significance of examining idioms in song lyrics as a valuable source for learning and vocabulary enrichment.  \nReceived: April 15, 2025; Revised: April 22, 2025; Accepted: May 27, 2025; Published: June 05, 2025  \nIdiomatic Expressions Found in Taylor Swift ’s Song “Shake It Off” Lyrics  \nResearch on idiomatic expressions in song lyrics has been extensively conducted; however, the majority of studies continue to focus on the analysis of idioms in songs in general or in the works of other musicians.
