Словосочетание - это два или несколько слов, употребляемых вместе и связанных по смыслу. В английском языке существует великое множество устойчивых словосочетаний (Collocations). Часть из них относятся к числу Strong collocations, то есть существует только один правильный вариант этого словосочетания. Чтобы освоение новых слов было более эффективным, их нужно сразу нужно изучать вместе с теми словами, которые употребляются вместе с ними. Это позволит автоматизировать речь и избежать ошибок в употреблении новой лексики.
Например, русскому глаголу "делать" соответствуют 2 английских глагола - "to do" и "to make". Поэтому важно знать, что если мы хотим сказать - "сделать ошибку" мы должны сказать "to make a mistake", а если речь идет о вашем домашнем задании, нужно употребить "do your homework". К разряду устойчивых словосочетаний относятся и английские идиомы.
