Hi everyone!
I have been following this EFL (English as a Foreign Language) blog recently and I'd like to share with you a very good lesson the teacher has posted this week.
Her name is Shanti Cumaraswamy. She was born in England but grew up in Kuala Lumpur. Her posts are incredible and of very good quality. So, it is also further reference for your studies.
This week she started a series on collocations. I usually define collocations as very good combinations of words. Good combinations are words that often come together. In Portuguese we can give a few examples like: colocar a mesa, passar um fax, mascar chiclete, chupar manga, tomate cereja, leite azedo. Collocations are usually combinations of verbs and nouns; or adjectives and nouns.
Teacher Santi writes a nice text about collocations with a valid dictionary definition. After that she shows tons of great examples.
So, without further ado, let's move to the link below and check out what she has in stock for us:
