dc.description.abstractCollocations, no matter where to use them, are an important linguistic issue if it is native fluency that is longedfor in academic writing. In line with that, the present study aimed at increasing the awareness towards theimportance of collocations in order to have native fluency in academic writing; making some suggestionsregarding involvement of collocations in academic texts, and creating a practicable list of collocations to be usedespecially in research articles by non-native writers of English. A hundred research articles written in English inthe field of ELT by native speakers of English made up the data of the present study. The data were analysed andthe collocations were identified and categorized. The categorized collocations were enhanced throughcollocations dictionaries to be able to create a comprehensive list of collocations. The findings showed thatnative speakers heavily rely on collocations while writing academic texts. In addition, the literature also providedcompelling evidence regarding the close relation between native fluency in academic texts and correct collocation use.
