Talk:disaster

Examples

Do we really need this many example sentences? I'm afraid that it might be overwhelming to ESL learners to see such huge chunks of text. Tempodivalse [talk] 21:38, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

The various examples show the typical context and collocations (e.g., adj + ~ natural disaster, ~ + noun disaster relief, and ~ + verb disaster struck). Disaster seems to be rich in these types of collocations, and the result is a large number of examples.--Brett (talk) 22:06, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

Good point! I still wonder whether we can remove one or two sentences that are similar to another in the group, but makes sense to keep most of them. Any chance we could get a "mind map" for this word? Tempodivalse [talk] 03:30, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
