Idioms are integral components of language, playing a crucial role in understanding and processing linguistic expressions. Although extensive research has been conducted on the comprehension of idioms in the text domain, their interpretation in multi-modal spaces remains largely unexplored. In this work, we propose a multi-expert framework to investigate the transfer of idiomatic knowledge from the language to the vision modality. Through a series of experiments, we demonstrate that leveraging text-based representations of idioms can significantly enhance understanding of the visual space, bridging the gap between linguistic and visual semantics.
