Collocations

Collocations are common word pairings or groups that naturally go together in language, making speech and writing sound more fluent and native-like. For example, we say "strong coffee" instead of "powerful coffee" and "make a decision" rather than "do a decision." These fixed or frequently used combinations arise from how language is used socially and culturally. Understanding collocations helps improve communication clarity and style, as using the right combinations makes your language sound more familiar and natural to native speakers. They are key to mastering fluent, idiomatic language use.
