Résumé :	The present research paper aims at investigating the effects of the different categories of English idioms on reading comprehension through a test submitted to the first year Master English students at the English Department, Constantine. Algeria. This work attempts also to examine whether the context plays a role on comprehension of idioms, the influence of the categories of English idioms on understanding written discourse, and analyzing the problems students encounter in attempting to comprehend the meaning of the decontextualized idioms. The results obtained from the students’ answers show students’ unfamiliarity with decontextualized idioms. However, the students show familiarity with the idioms given in context. The results present a very clear view of the influence of context on students when they read a stretch of written discourse. Students’ answers also provide the problems of guessing the appropriate meaning of the idioms and how the degree of idiomaticity influences their comprehension. These problems clearly appeared when students attempt to guess the meaning of the idioms from their constituent words as a solution to the interpretation, and this is the major problem of the subjects under investigation
