Everyday and Business Vocabulary
Vocabulary items ask you to choose the best word for the context, often in a workplace setting. Knowing common collocations and precise meanings is essential.
Workplace Collocations
Certain business phrases are fixed: you 'arrange a meeting', 'join forces', and 'attach' a file to an email. Using the expected partner word makes your English sound natural and professional.
Choosing the Precise Word
Options often share a general meaning but differ in nuance. 'Streamline' means to make a process more efficient, which is different from 'delay' or 'complicate'. Read the sentence for clues about whether the meaning should be positive or negative.
