COMPENSATION
Could somebody please tell me why it's incorrect to say,
"You should make some compensation"? Many thanks in advance!
It's not incorrect, but the collocation (see below) is normally "give compensation".
collocation 2. An arrangement or juxtaposition of words or other elements, especially those that commonly co-occur, as rancid butter, bosom buddy, or dead serious. http://www.bartleby.com/61/36/C0483600.html
Sorry, bad info. My son is arriving from Frankfurt today and I'm all in a spin.
It's OK to say "make compensation". " to remedy the breach, nor was she required to make compensation in money in respect thereof." |
