Abstract
Collocations have been approached differently by different linguists, and a plethora of books have been written about this term. Since neologisms are intruding into English language, it is time now to look at some terminologies that hourly appear in English. The parameters by which linguists can judge whether a combination of newly formed bundle of words is classified as a collocation are made easier by the support of AntConc. Software which shows the MI score and the frequency of co-occurrence of these items in a specific context by a specific user. The present study may yield some results for lexicographers who are interested in creating new dictionaries of collocations. Further, teaching students these combinations in writing will extensively and effectively add to their authenticity in writing.
