Collocations in English

[Алексей Конобеев]

A frequent problem in teaching vocabulary and especially in preparing for the Use of English section of international exams is to decide which word should go with some other word, i.e. which collocations are possible and which are not. I've come across an online concordancer and collocations sampler where you can check which word in a multiple choice test should be chosen and whether some other variants are possible too. The sampler can be used by teachers to prepare for their lessons, by students to prepare for exams and by all of us to speak better English.
