Big, Large, Great, Deep, Strong, or Heavy?
Don’t say “I’ll have a big coffee” Say “I’ll have a large coffee” Don’t say “It was a large success” Say “It was a great success” Don’t say “I’m in heavy trouble” Say “I’m in deep trouble” Why do the first sentences sound strange, but the second ones sound natural?

Today we’ll learn 50 common English collocations with the words big, great, large, deep, strong, and heavy. These all seem rather similar, but they are used in DIFFERENT combinations of words.
