Feeling + Feelings Collocations

A student asked me when we use the word feeling (singular) vs. feelings (plural), like in the sentence "I can certainly understand your feeling / feelings." The most natural choice here is feelings, because we use the plural form when it's a substitute for the word "emotions" in general. We use the word feeling, singular, when we're talking about one specific feeling. It's usually modified with an adjective - an amazing feeling, a terrible feeling, etc. In today's lesson you'll expand your vocabulary by learning collocations with the words feeling and feelings. These are combinations of words that are often used together - and learning them will help you speak English more easily and naturally. I have two great ways for you to learn lots more collocations fast: One is my e-book, 1000 Collocations in 10 Minutes a Day, which is great for intermediate learners. The other one is my Advanced Vocabulary and Collocations Course, which is perfect for more experienced English learners. Click on each link for more information and to join!
