Your Upgrade Plan

Make these habits part of your daily English practice:

• Avoid learning a word alone — record it with its useful collocations
• Keep a journal with entries like "commit (a crime, to a goal, to memory)"
• Read daily in English so your brain absorbs natural pairs passively
• Use a collocation dictionary (such as the Oxford Collocations Dictionary) when you are unsure
• Self-test by covering the verb and guessing it from the noun, or the reverse

Collocations are the quiet ingredient of natural-sounding English.
