Is the frog slowly crept by a idiom?

"The frog slowly crept by" is not an idiom. It's a simple sentence describing the action of a frog.

Here's why:

* Idioms are phrases with a figurative meaning that differs from the literal meaning of the words. For example, "kick the bucket" means to die, not to literally kick a bucket.

* "The frog slowly crept by" uses words in their literal sense. The frog is literally creeping, and the sentence conveys the action of the frog moving slowly.
