Thanks for watching and for your lovely comment, Rincon! 🇲🇽 I hope that everything is going well with you in Mexico. 🤗 I wish you all the best with your English studies. 🤩
I learned something today. I had no idea what a collocation was, but I have obviously used it in speech. It was interesting to know the different types. I'm not sure which ones I would like you to teach in the future.
I am glad you could learn from this video. I am pretty sure that native speakers never think about collocations, but for people learning English for the first time, collocations can be very difficult. Collocations may be difficult, but they are important to sound natural in English. Thank you for watching and thanks for your comment.
Hi Saki, I don't know if you've seen the video I uploaded today, but the topic is Colloctions using Verbs + the preposition 'On'. If you haven't seen it yet, here is the link. I hope it helps. ☺️. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-F5nf6GYRtL4.html&lc=z22tx1xp4ujhezygw04t1aokgjvoq5ir4tupjg4skxolrk0h00410
I really love your teaching method, its really cooperated for us, but I need, Lexical collocations and grammar collocations providing five examples each.
Thanks for your comment, Irfan. 🙂 I have 13 different lessons all about collocations which I am sure will be helpful for you. I've put all my collocation lessons into this playlist: ru-vid.com/group/PLktdXyVCSbc8AvLyPTxOws7Cm8F1DAIjy
Hi, Jen! I love this lesson, too! It's really interesting and useful. I want to know collocation about cheering. I know "go for it", I don't know where to go, though. You know, we Japanese always say "fight!" when we cheer up someone. I was surprised to know this expression is really strange to native speaker. Anyway I want to know how to cheer up someone who play soccer game, or prepare the entrance exam. Thank you♥
Thank you, Chizuko. You're right, when native speakers want to encourage someone, we never actually say 'fight'. Also, cheering on someone and cheering up someone seem similar but are different in English. If you want to cheer on someone you can definitely say, "Go for it!" which is an idiom that basically means, try your best to achieve your goal. I would usually say something like, " You're doing great so far. Keep going!", or "Come on! You can do it!" In the specific case of an exam I might say, "You're so smart and you've been studying so hard. You've totally got this!" If someone is sad and I want to cheer up that person, depending on the situation I might say something like, "Hang in there, things will get better." or "I'm here for you, you'll get through this." or "Don't worry. I'm praying for you!" In the future, think I'll make a video about expressions for encouragement. In the meantime I hope this helps ♥
Thank you, Mr. Seng ☺️ I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed this lesson about collocations. ✨ I actually have a small playlist full of collocation lessons that you might be interested in if you haven't watched the lessons already: ru-vid.com/group/PLktdXyVCSbc8AvLyPTxOws7Cm8F1DAIjy
You should have given the references for the 8 types of colloc that you mentioned. Which book did you find those? Some books say there are 6 types. Whats your reference? Can you give a reference using APA style (7th edition)? Thanks. de.
Hello 😊. The very first line in the description of this video has a link to the textbook that I used when preparing this lesson: amzn.to/2WjgLsa 📕 . It is a great book published through Cambridge called English Collocations in Use Intermediate 📚. I hope that helps 🤗.
@@JeNsJyugyou *Thank you very much for the kind response. God bless you.❤🩹 I never thought to get a reply. It will help in my research. Thanks. Best wishes.*
Don't feel bad, I have so many students who say, "Big rain", instead of "Heavy rain". I think it's because of directly translating "大雨” into English. Try not to rely on electronic translators too much for that exact reason. 😅 As for your question, there are 8 main types of collocations, however the amount of individual collocations in the English language is massive, as in thousands. Don't let that discourage you though, just be aware of the ones you hear and see the most around you and start using them. You can slowly build from there. 🙂
Thank you for your comment. I am currently working on a lesson about weather collocations and plan to upload it this Friday. I hope you will find the video useful in your studies. ☺️
The lesson about weather collocations has been uploaded. Thanks for your request. You can find the weather collocation video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-n0Vuws2GiB8.html
