Resumen

ABSTRACT: Anyone studying a foreign language wonders what they can do to improve their fluency, both in spoken and written form. One of the answers is to learn phraseological units. Therefore, in this paper we will focus on the processes of teaching and learning English language collocations. We will deal, specifically, with noun + noun and verb + noun collocations, due to their numerous units.

Lewis' Lexical Approach (1993) and its impact on the teaching of the English language lexicon will be presented. The concept of collocations will then be addressed and the different typologies will be outlined according to the scheme proposed by Corpas Pastor (1996). Finally, four original activities will be presented on some English language collocations, in order to facilitate the teaching and learning of this type of units in the English LE classroom.

Keywords: collocations, learning, teaching, EFL, vocabulary, intermediate level.
