  • Foreign.

  • Welcome to the A to Z English podcast.

  • My name is Jack and I'm here with my co host, Social.

  • And today we have another collocations episode.

  • And just for our listeners out there that don't know,

  • a collocation is a group of words that go together naturally in English.

  • So sometimes you'll make a sentence that is grammatically correct,

  • but it sounds awkward to a native speaker.

  • We just.

  • We don't say it that way.

  • We.

  • We would use the.

  • A different collocation.

  • So, Social, I'm going to give you three verbs.

  • All right, Sorry.

  • I'm going to give you one verb, and then I'm going to give you kind of three phrases,

  • and I want you to match the verb to the correct phrase.

  • Which collocation is the most natural.

  • So the first one, the verb is face.

  • To face something, face on the bandwagon, face the plug, or face the music.
