Collocations
Hello guys back again to see my blog, for this time I will  tell you about colligation,
Enjoy for see my blog J
Definition:
A grouping of words based on the way they function in a syntactic structure--i.e., a syntactic pattern. Verb: colligate.
As linguist Ute Römer has observed, "What collocation is on a lexical level of analysis, colligation is on a syntactic level. The term does not refer to the repeated combination of concrete word forms but to the way in which word classes co-occur or keep habitual company in an utterance" (Progressives, Patterns, Pedagogy, see below).
 By me collocations is a combination of words that are commonly used together; the simplest way of describing collocations is to say that they ‘just sound right’ to native English speakers.
