Il dizionario delle collocazioni
Le combinazioni delle parole in italiano
In linguistics the term ‘collocation’ is used to mean a combination of lexical items that regularly or habitually occurs together, and sounds natural, in speech or writing. The way words combine in a language is not determined by rules of syntax or grammar but is instead established through repeated context-dependent use within the language community.
The Dizionario delle collocazioni is specifically designed to help choose the right words to express ideas in an effective way. With a selection of about 200,000 collocations it is a useful tool to develop an increased range of vocabulary and facility of expression in idiomatic Italian.
Ahoy!
