COLLOCATION

Hello Everybody...
Well, in this beautiful morning, I am going to sharing knowledge about one of type semantics. That is COLLOCATION.

Make sure after this you will understand about it. Please listen carefully.




You know guys that COLLOCATION can be used to thesis.  Like this:

The Title : DEVELOPING COLLOCATIONAL AWARENESS
BY           : GÜLAY KOÇ
From     : Department of Teaching English as a foreign language, Bilkent University Ankara, Turkey.
Publish on July 2006

Background of the study:
collocations have been researched from various aspects. However, only a few researchers have attempted to develop insights towards the needs of learners and practitioners in EFL classroom settings. The focus of this study is on explicitly raising students’consciousness towards collocations, and providing learners with different techniques for the retention of these word combinations.

Research Questions:
This study will address the following questions:
1.       To what extent does explicit instruction of vocabulary in collocations with different techniques develop collocational awareness in students?
2.        Does explicit instruction of vocabulary in collocations, using different techniques, have any enhancing effects on retention of vocabulary?

METHODOLOGY
This study was conducted with the participation of eight intact classrooms with 160 EFL students of upper intermediate proficiency level who were enrolled in the preparatory program at Ankara University School of Foreign Languages, which is an intensive English language program preparing students for their further university studies. Regular course teachers of the eight classrooms, who had at least four yearexperience with the same proficiency level students, also participated in the study to teach in three treatment sessions and administer the pre- and post-test.

Conclusion
This study has revealed that explicit instruction of vocabulary in collocations with different techniques develops awareness in students towards collocations to the extent that they can recognize collocations and categorize them, ask questions related to collocations, find collocates for the headwords in the texts they encounter in their actual courses, as well as finding collocates for the headwords in these texts to expand their vocabulary. It has also showed that students, when taught vocabulary in collocations, retain more words than they do when they are taught vocabulary as isolated items. Additionally, in this study, the three techniques used in the treatment session were compared and the translation technique was found more effective that is, the words taught with translation technique were retained better than those taught with dictaglossing and error correction with concordancing extracts.

Result :

Ternyata untuk siswa tersebut, collocation lebih efektif dengan mengajarkan kata-katanya dengan teknik penerjemahan daripada ceramah dan koneksi yang tidak nyambung dengan pemaksaan.

  1. So awesome. Well, the correct sentence depend on collecation. But what is different between collecation and diction ? On My perspective they almost same in definition.

    1. it is different because diction is how we choice the word or pemilihan kata yang tepat, the contex is so different with collocation, in here it is put two word together or it is something that natural we heard for example big mistake, we dont say large mistake :)

    1. In your research question 😊

      Hapus
    2. To answer the first question,
      to what extent explicit instruction of vocabulary in collocations raises students’
      awareness towards collocations, The interviews revealed that learners, when introduced to vocabulary with more emphasis on collocations, developed awareness towards collocations to the extent that they were able to ask or come up with collocates of the key words they encounter in reading passages,and deal with collocations in the usual course of their English classes.

      As for the second research question,it was answered satisfactorily in the light of
      quantitative data gathered from the vocabulary retention test, which was administered
      one week before and after the treatment sessions. The vocabulary gains of both
      experimental and control groups were calculated and compared with each other to see
      which treatment type yielded better results.
