Introduction Treatment of English collocations has only recently
begun to find its way in pedagogical materials targeted at the learner of
English as a Foreign Language (EFL). This essay will first, draw an outline
of the concept of collocation and examine relevant aspects of the way
collocational studies are conducted; second, it will look into the (actual
and potential) contribution of the findings of collocational studies to EFL
instruction and support materials, as well as examine the pedagogical treatment
of the collocational properties of lexical items in them |
