Teaching Advanced English Vocabulary: Collocations
PIEGLOVÁ, Monika
This master's thesis examines the significance of collocations in the English language teaching at the corresponding level of secondary schools, i.e., B1 and B2 levels according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. The thesis deals with the linguistic aspect of collocations in the theoretical part and is based on the methodological approaches to vocabulary teaching. It analyses selected English language coursebooks: English File, Headway, New Success, High Note, and Maturita Solutions, in order to gain insight into the methodological approaches to developing collocational competence, and the variety of exercises related to collocations. The research offers valuable resources and activities designed to support deeper understanding and practical application of collocational competence among language learners.
Lexical Collocation Errors in English Produced by Czech Learners of English
ŽEMLIČKOVÁ, Radka
This diploma thesis is focused on collocations, i.e. repeatedly occurring combinations of lexical items. Main emphasis is put on lexical collocations produced incorrectly by Czech learners of English. The theoretical part of the thesis deals with various definitions describing this lexical phenomenon and with classification of collocations. A brief mention of the attitude to teaching collocations at schools is made, too. In the practical part, 200 collocations gathered from essays written by L2 learners of Czech secondary grammar schools are analysed as for a type of a restriction, semantic transparency and a part of speech. With erroneously produced collocation, an attempt to explain the cause leading to error is made and the correct combination or its closest equivalent is adduced. The results are presented in tables.
