Okey guys... now i will give you the explanation about collocation..

What is collocation
A collocation is two or more words that often go together. These combination just sound “right” to native English speakers. Who use them all the time. On the other hand, other combinations may be unnatural and just sound “wrong”. Look at these examples:
Natural english--- Unnatural English
The fast train
Fast food quick train
Quick food quick shower
A quick meal a fast shower
A fast meal

Why must learn collocation ?
ü Your language will be more natural and more easily understood.
ü You will have alternative and richer ways of expressing yor self
ü It is easier for our brains to remember and use language in chunks or blocks rather than as single words
Types of collocation there are several different type of collocation made from combination of verb, noun, adjective etc. Some of the most common types are:
ü Adverb + Adjective : completely sastified (NOT Down right satified)
ü Adjective+Noun : excruciating pain ( NOT a rush of a anger)
ü Noun + Verb : Lions Roar (NOT lions shout)
ü Verb + Noun : Commit Suicide ( NOT undertake suicide)
ü Verb + Expression with preposition : burst into tears ( NOT blow up in tears)
ü Verb + Adverb : wave frantically (NOT wave faveshly)
