To speak and write natural English, the use of collocations plays an important part. A collocation refers to two or more words that often go together.
For example, we say 'fast food' instead of 'quick food' and 'quick shower' but not 'fast shower'. Mastering collocations will make your language more natural and more easily understood and thus have alternative and richer ways of expressing yourself.
