In recent years, the study of vocabulary collocations has provided a new perspective for second language acquisition, and has inspired English learning. Mastering collocations of different words has many good impacts on the use of the second language. The major theme of this paper is learning and teaching lexical collocations, which is helpful to second language acquisition. It includes various methods and activities aimed at raising students’ and educators’ awareness of their existence in different English environments, and at the same time intensifying the importance of grasping frequently used collocations of words. The purpose of this research is to specify the vocabulary collocations and their acquisition, to clarify the great effects of studying vocabulary collocations, to showcase specific teaching strategies of collocations that can be utilized in a variety of contexts, and to give implications for language teaching in English reading, listening, speaking and writing skills for young and adult learners when they study collocations in the English language classroom.
