PTE Collocation – What is a Collocation?

PTE COLLOCATION

Collocations are words that go together that sounds natural to native speakers. Now who are native speakers and where are they? Native speakers are people who learn English as their first language so it’s their mother tongue and to native speakers ‘some word combinations’ might sound a little weird or it doesn’t sound right. So some word combinations sound unnatural to native speakers and these are the word combinations you should be avoiding. So these are words that don’t go together. They’re not wrong but they just don’t go together because they sound unnatural to native speakers so if you want to sound natural – start using collocations.

Let’s talk about words that don’t go together – why don’t they go together? Let’s think of colors there are certain colors that don’t go together very well. You don’t know why but they just don’t look good together. So this isn’t how you know if they’re wrong they just don’t go together. They don’t look good together. So colors that do look to get together all collocations, for example, Black and White. These are colors that go very well together. So just same like this, colors that go together are like collocations so they look good together.
