Collocations
Collocations are combinations of words that go together naturally. For example instead of a big amount, it is more natural to say a substantial amount.
Phrasal verbs
Phrasal verbs are verbs which have a main verb and a particle which, together, make one meaning. For example a plane takes off from the airport; an adult looks after a child.
