Intermediate and above. Published 2005.
A good knowledge of collocations (typical word combinations) is essential for fluent and natural-sounding English. Using collocations will improve your
style of written and spoken English, and knowledge of collocations is often tested in examinations such as Cambridge FCE, CAE, CPE and IELTS. Learning
correct word combinations will also help you avoid common learner errors. English Collocations in Use presents and practises hundreds of
collocations in typical contexts.
Using collocations will improve your style of written and spoken English: - Instead of 'a big amount', say 'a substantial amount' - Instead of 'think about
the options', say 'consider the options'
Using collocations will make your English sound more natural: - Instead of 'get ill', say 'fall ill' - Instead of 'a big fine', say 'a heavy fine'
Using collocations will help you avoid common learner errors: - Instead of 'do a choice', say 'make a choice' - Instead of 'make your homework', say 'do
your homework'
