Collins COBUILD Phrasal Verbs Dictionary - 4th Edition

Description

Revised and updated to reflect changes in the English language, this new edition provides learners with detailed information on phrasal verbs in a language that is easy to understand. With new phrasal verbs and updated examples from the Collins Corpus, this edition is packed with information on how phrasal verbs work, what they mean, and how to use them. The two-color layout means that it is easier than ever for students to find the information they need. It also includes an index of 200 single-word verbs and their phrasal verb equivalents, plus information on when you should use a single-word verb (for example, in academic writing) and when a phrasal verb would be more appropriate (for example, during an informal conversation with a friend). There are also collocations boxes, which provide students with the language they need to build natural-sounding sentences in English.
