This is not a traditional dictionary. Most dictionaries help you to find the meaning of words you do not know. The LTP Dictionary of Selected Collocations helps you to make the most of the words you do know.

Collocation is the way words combine with other words in predictable ways. Knowing strong and frequent collocations is essential for accurate, natural English. The LTP Dictionary of Selected Collocations shows intermediate and advanced learners how to use the most important of these collocations successfully.

The Noun Section gives you 50,000 collocations for 2,000 essential nouns. The Adverb Section helps you to use 5,000 adverbs with over 1,200 verbs and adjectives. Using correct collocations expands your English and makes it much more effective.

The simple design means you can use the book immediately. The entries are carefully selected so that you can find what you want at a glance.
