English idiom teaching and learning is an obstacle for both teachers and students. In recent year, a teaching method based on conceptual metaphor theory provides new insights for English idiom teaching. Based on CNKI, this paper aims to study the relevant literature on the application of conceptual metaphor on English idiom teaching from 2005 to 2022. It can be found that the research methods in these papers are mainly empirical research and theoretical research, and the perspective of research contents are diverse; while the long-term effect of CM-Based idiom teaching method is paid little attention. The study proposes some suggestions for further research with the purpose of contributing ideas to the domestic studies on the application of conceptual metaphor on English idiom teaching.
