Collocations are frequently occurring combinations of words with a semantic motivation behind the link (e.g. brush teeth, dark night, high forehead etc.). This innovative dictionary registers for each base-word all the collocators possible in German, together, where appropriate, with their meanings and instances of their use. This productive dictionary is of equal value for non-native speakers and for native-speakers who wish to express themselves in a more precise and differentiated manner. In addition, it provides a unique repository of examples for linguistic research.
