Oxford Collocations Dictionary

This dictionary is really helpful for getting it right when you are not sure about how to combine words to write or speak idiomatic English. As a non-native speaker I often find myself wondering about what word comes before or next after a preposition, a verb, an adverb or a noun. I have a good command of English but there are times when I have no clue about what word or grammatical construction to use in a given context. That is when this dictionary comes into play. It provides plenty of examples of contexts where a word or set words or expressions are to be used to compose sentences in standard, idiomatic English. A true lifesaver for non-native speakers to write according to the usual manner of expression in English.

Great dictionary with complete information about words that are combined with others in a natural correct way for sounding more native and fluently.It comes with a CD-ROM to practice the whole mixed words.

So far I love this book. I subtracted one star because there is no CD-ROM come with this book.
