#Collocations
🔘Sports
▪️The first important collocation involving sports is when to use the verbs play, do, and go.
🔸 We typically use play for team sports – you play soccer, play basketball, play tennis, play baseball, and play golf.
🔸The verb do is used for more individual sports – you do yoga, do gymnastics, do martial arts, and do aerobics. Also, in more general terms, you do exercise. Another common individual exercise is to lift weights.
🔸The verb go is used with most activities that end in –ing: you go swimming, go biking, go surfing, go rock climbing, go bowling, and go fishing.
🔸With the team sports, we can use the word game or match: a soccer game, a basketball game, a tennis
match, etc.
🔸 You can win the game, lose the game, or tie the game – that’s when the final score is 1-1 or 2-2, for example.
🔸A team can play a home game – when they play in their own stadium or field – or an away game – when they play at the opposing team’s stadium or field. When there are many teams that are playing many games to see which one is the best, we call this a tournament.
🔸When one team is winning in the middle of the game – for example, 3-1 – we say that team has the lead. However, the other team can make a comeback – score points from a losing position – and take the lead, 4-3.
🔸With the sports that use “do” and “go,” we typically use the word competition – a
gymnastics competition, a martial arts competition, a surfing competition, an ice skating competition, etc.
🔸The exception is sports where you go from one place to another – like running, biking, and swimming – in that case, we often call the event a race.
🔸Athletes can enter a competition and try to win first place. Some athletes try to enhance their performance with illegal substances such as steroids. But if they fail a drug test, they’ll be disqualified
from participating.
🔸If the athlete is performing well, they may achieve a personal best – and if they perform better than ANYONE ever has in the past, then they could even break the world record or set a new world record. If they get injured, however, they might have to withdraw from the competition (voluntarily leave the competition) .

So/Neither do I and I think so
A: So and neither
Vicky: I'm hungry.
Rachel:
So am I.1 haven't eaten anything all day.
Daniel:
Neither have I. I didn't have time for breakfast.
▪️We use so after a positive statement and neither after a negative one.~ I'm hungry.
~
So am I. (= And I'm hungry./I'm hungry, too.)
~l haven't eaten.
~
Neither have I. (=
And I haven't eaten./I haven't eaten either.) ➖
The structure is so/neither + an auxiliary + the subject.
➖The auxiliary is a form of be or have or a modal verb, e.g. can.~We're really busy at work.
~
So are we. ~Tom has gone to the match.
~
And so has Nick.~David can't drive, and
neither can Melanie.➖ The subject comes at the end. NOT
We're busy. ~

so did Rangers.

soap opera. Are we going to be back in time?
Daniel:
I think so. We haven't got far to go now.
Rachel: We might miss the beginning.
Vicky: Oh, I
hope not. I want to know if Bernard really did stea
the money.
Here I
think so means I think we'll be back in time', and I
hope not means I hope we don't miss the beginning'.
▪️We can use so after be afraid, believe, expect, guess, hope, suppose and think:
~Do you think you'll get the job? ~
Well, I hope so.
~Are you going
on holiday this year?
~
Yes, I expect so. I don't know for sure if Henry is rich, but I
should think so. But we cannot use so after know or be sure.
~There's been an accident.
~ Yes, I know, NOT
l know so.
~Are you sure you're doing the right thing?
~ Yes, I'm sure, NOT
I'm sure so. ▪️There are two negative structures: NEGATIVE + SO POSITIVE + not~Is it raining?
~ I don't think so.~ Is it raining?
~
I hope not.
~Are you going to the concert?
~
I don't expect so.
~Have we won a prize?
~
I'm afraid not.
~With expect and think, we normally
use the negative and so.~With be afraid, guess and hope, we use
