Collocations pp
The document discusses collocations, which are combinations of two or more words that naturally go together in the English language, such as "fast train" or "quick shower". It explains that learning collocations makes language more natural and easier to understand. Some tips for learning collocations include being aware of them, treating them as single blocks, and learning them in groups by topic or related word. Different types of collocations involve various parts of speech in combination, such as adverb-adjective or noun-verb. Regular practice and review are important for collocation learning.
Types of collocations
There are different ways to classify collocations, or words that are frequently used together. Collocations can be classified by their grammatical structure, such as adjective + preposition or noun + particular verb form. Another classification is lexical collocations, where a word like a verb, noun, adjective or adverb forms a predictable connection with another word. Examples are given of common collocations that frequently go together versus rare collocations not often seen. In general, collocations refer to words that are very closely associated with each other based on their frequent usage patterns.

Phrasal Verbs (Guido Alvaro Lopez Mamani)
This document provides an overview of phrasal verbs in English. It defines phrasal verbs as verbs combined with particles, which are usually prepositions but function differently. Particles can change the meaning of the verb. Phrasal verbs are more common in everyday speech than one-word verbs. Transitive phrasal verbs take objects that can come before or between the verb and particle. Intransitive phrasal verbs do not take objects. Care must be taken with pronouns as objects of transitive phrasal verbs. Examples are provided to illustrate usage.
Diagramming sentences
The document discusses various grammatical concepts for diagramming sentences, including:
- Simple sentences with subjects and predicates
- Compound sentences with two or more subjects and predicates joined with conjunctions
- Different types of phrases like prepositional, gerund, infinitive, and participial phrases
- Various parts of speech like adjectives, adverbs, articles, and objects
- Clauses such as adjective, adverb, and compound clauses
The goal is to understand sentence structure and identify different elements to improve writing.
