In class we looked at noun phrases and collocations. In terms of collocations, we decided identified some good, bad, and funny expressions, but with some correction we arrived at the following beautiful examples:
- provide Halal chicken monthly
- repair a badly broken camera
- desperately need unconditional love
- ask a terrible question
- smell fresh flowers
- found an international organisation
- decorate a Christmas tree
- boycott drive-through McDonalds
- punish a (not particularly) smart thief
We also attempted to correct some collocation errors from your writing. Can you suggest any better alternatives than the following? Write your suggestions as comments underneath:
- Go through a challenge
- Opinionated questions
- Manage harder
- Wrong habitual eating styles
- Very necessary
- Before I received my first child
- Less quality alternative
- Make more research
