Idioms collocations And word formations

Collin Phillips

This book will be extremely useful for students who want to expand their knowledge of English idioms, one of the most baffling areas of the English language. Apart from idioms proper Colin Phillips has also included in the book collocations, which are often equally troublesome for the learner if not more so. In addition, the book contains a section devoted to word formation, an important but usually neglected aspect of English in textbooks for foreign learners. Idioms, collocations and word formations are introducted in the form of exercises which place each item in a broader language context. The English used in the exercises is not bookish, as is often the case, but reflects the genuine current usage at various stylistic levels. Colin Phillips book is an innovative and up-to-date textbook which can be recommended to those students of English who want to learn more of the language than textbooks normally allow.
