phrase Explanation: In this case it will do the trick. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 mins (2017-11-05 12:59:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- think we use the Present Perfect in conditional clauses when it's presumed the action requires some time to be done or completed, it implies some process. ... until she has apologized. So she hasn't done it yet and it will probably take her some time to realize she must do it. Here the process is her getting to understand that she was wrong or that apologizing is necessary. I will only say the thing is lost after I have looked in every corner. It'll take time to look in every corner. To leave, to start raining are abrupt actions, so they require the Present simple. I think already could be a test-word - if you can mentally insert it, then the Present Perfect is possible. ... until she has already apologized. ... before you have already left -sounds weird. |

word association Explanation: For "nonstandard" meanings, "word associations" may fit better. |

phrasal expression Explanation: What is a phrasal expression? There are a number of phrasal expressions, ranging from phrasal adverbs (under my skin), phrasal nouns (make-up), phrasal adjectives (spot on), phrasal verbs (call off) to phrasal prepositions (in front of). A Phrasal Verb is a verb consisting of two or more parts; a verb and another particle (typically an adverb or preposition). Unlike prepositions, particles often change the meaning of the verb they combine with: ◦ Verb + Preposition I ran out the door. (I left quickly) ◦ Phrasal Verb Can I borrow some paper? I ran out. (I used all my paper) Most are formed from a small number of common verbs (such as get, go, come, play, put and set) and a small number of adjectives (set free), nouns (play house), adverbs (run away), prepositions (put up with) or a combination of them (bark up the wrong tree). Phrasal verbs sometimes have meanings that can easily be guessed (such as sit down or look for). But in most cases their meanings are quite different from the meaning of the verb they are formed from: for example hold up can mean 'to cause a delay' or 'to try to rob someone' and has no obvious connection with the idea of 'holding' something |

collocation Explanation: Są to więc wyrazy i związki wyrazowe pretendujące do określeń jednoznacznych. - https://goo.gl/ZM9zYu ---- Równie kłopotliwe bywa określenie, czy dany związek wyrazowy ma charakter utarty (wówczas stanowi on kolokację), czy doraźny (wtedy jest to zwykły tzw. produkt języka).- https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Związek_frazeologiczny --- https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolokacja_(frazeologia)# --- In corpus linguistics, a collocation is a sequence of words or terms that co-occur more often than would be expected by chance. In phraseology, collocation is a sub-type of phraseme. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collocation |
