Collocations in Portuguese

What Are Collocations?

Collocations are word combinations that native speakers naturally use together. Unlike idioms, each word keeps its meaning, but the pairing is fixed by convention.

Types of Portuguese Collocations

Verb + Noun: These are the most common. Portuguese often uses different verbs than English:

  • Prestar atenção (not dar atenção)
  • Tomar uma decisão (not fazer uma decisão)
  • Correr um risco (not ter um risco)

Verb + Preposition + Noun: Many collocations include a fixed preposition:

  • Pôr em causa (to call into question)
  • Dar origem a (to give rise to)
  • Tirar partido de (to take advantage of)

Adjective + Noun: Certain adjectives naturally pair with specific nouns:

  • Uma vasta experiência (extensive experience)
  • Um profundo conhecimento (deep knowledge)

Why Collocations Matter at C1

Using the right collocations distinguishes a competent speaker from a truly fluent one. Incorrect collocations are immediately noticeable to native speakers, even when grammatically correct.

Tip: Learn collocations as fixed units rather than translating word-by-word from your language.

表达

  • Levar a cabo um projetoTo carry out a project
  • Pôr em prática uma ideiaTo put an idea into practice
  • Dar conta do recadoTo get the job done
  • Fazer face a um desafioTo face up to a challenge
  • Tirar conclusões precipitadasTo jump to conclusions
  • Prestar contas a alguémTo be accountable to someone

常见错误

  • Fazer uma decisão
    Tomar uma decisão

    In PT, decisions are "taken" (tomar), not "made" (fazer)

  • Dar atenção
    Prestar atenção

    The correct verb with atenção is prestar, not dar

  • Pôr em questão
    Pôr em causa

    The fixed collocation uses causa, not questão

  • Levar a frente um projeto
    Levar a cabo um projeto

    The correct expression uses cabo (end), not frente

  • Tirar vantagem
    Tirar partido

    Tirar partido is the natural PT collocation, not tirar vantagem
