Sažetak

Previous research on collocations has emphasised the significance of collocations as co-occurrence and recurrence. Applied linguists exploring the acquisition of collocations made a significant contribution to the understanding of the notion of collocation. However, only few
studies have dealt with the difference between collocations in general English and collocations in scientific English.
The present study deals with verb collocations in medical English. Collocations are observed in the interaction of syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations. The emphasis is on upward collocations (collocate and node). The study aims at analysing the level of collocational competence of non-native users of medical English in order to identify the aspects of verb collocations that require a special approach in teaching medical language.
