Collocations Thesaurus Offline app analytics for November 28

The Collocations Dictionary and Thesaurus is a unique blend of two dictionaries, helping learners of English to choose the correct word and collocation every time. Based on corpus research, this dictionary ensures that you find the correct combination of words to use in every context – the words that a native speaker of English would choose. For example, when writing about research, which verb should you use? Do you make research or do research? This dictionary helps you to find the correct collocation: do research. It also tells you that some combinations (such as make research) are not correct, and offers you alternatives for a more formal written context, such as conduct research. The thesaurus section of this dictionary helps you to increase your vocabulary by grouping together words that are similar in meaning and showing the word combinations that are used with each word. For example, famous, legendary, eminent and notorious all have similar meanings but are typically used in different contexts: eminent is typically used about scientists, legendary is typically used about musicians and performers, and notorious is usually used about criminals.
