Corpus and Collocation Retrieval Systems

For any english learners, the common problem that often happens to us is that
when we try to find a right word while we are writing an essay, we take out our digital dictionary, and enter the chinese definition of the word, and then pick up random word that shows up.
However, for the english majored student , ignoring the fact that writing in this way would lead to incorrect usage when the picked word is not actually go with the verb, adj, adv or even the situation. and which is not acceptable.
Having known about this systems, i used it right away when writing my essay and traslation assignment. It did help alot!
whenever i'm not sure about the usage or whether the word goes witht the preposition, i check on this systems and it makes my writing less awkward and the usage are more precise
