In today’s article I would like to share the first part of my new collection of English collocations. First of all it should be defined the meaning of this concept.
A collocation is a common word combination of two or more words that usually go together in a way that sounds correct. Understanding this helps English learners improve their fluency and speak more natural. The meaning of a collocation might not be expected from the meaning of its separate words therefore it is extremely important to learn the meaning of some groups of words you can come across frequently.
This post introduces common collocations with the verb have. Below you can find the list of these collocations.
