Abstract EN

The aim of this study is to investigate, identify and analyze difficulties facing Sudanese students in learning English collocations.

The sample of the study involved eighty secondary school students.

The researcher adapted a multiple choice test for students.

The test was meant to evaluate the performance of Sudanese EFL Learners on both lexical and grammatical collocations which proposed by Benson, Benson, &Ilson (1997).

The findings confirmed that Sudanese Learners face difficulties with English collocations.

With regard to the poor result of lexical and grammatical collocations as well as various strategies, negative transfer ,synonymy and overgeneralization that students resorted to.

The study provides some recommendations to tackle these problems and enhance the processes of teaching and learning English collocations in Sudan.
