What is a collocations dictionary?

An English collocations dictionary is a specialized dictionary that lets you look up English collocations - words that are often used together. Each word entry shows the collocations of that word categorised based on different definitions, parts of speech, examples, and usage notes.

English collocations make your writing and speech sound more natural because you are using groups of words that native speakers of English normally use in their everyday communication. An English collocations dictionary sets you on this path, and it's also a good source of reference that you can always come back to.
