Read the LANGUAGE FOCUS. In your notebook, complete it with the examples in blue in Lisa's post. LANGUAGE FOCUS Collocation • A collocation is a central feature of any language. It refers to typical, frequently occurring combinations of words. For example, you can have strong feelings but NOT tough feelings. You might burst into tears but NOT explode inte tears. The strength of a collocation can vary. Have a laugh is quite weak because you can also have a day off, have a shower or have a baby. Shrug | Focus 4. Second Edition. Student's Book | 2/28
