collocations with Motivation?
car...@hotmail.com
1.What adjectives can I use to collocate with MOTIVATION?
2. from my very limited vocabulary, only a few are suggested here, please spot
out any mistakes. ( high / strong / high degree of motivation ??)
I need to enrich my vocabulary, please kindly provide more adjectives to
describe different degrees of motivation. Thank you so much for your help.
regards,
carol

"Collocate" is a bit stuffy. You could instead say just "use with
'motivation.'"

"Strong motivation" sounds good. "High degree of" is wordy; it
enfeebles "motivation."

Poor. Good. Weak. Insufficient. Lots of others. But you'd do
just as well to to expand the possibilities by also using the
adjective "motivated": strongly motivated, unmotivated, highly
motivated, and so forth.
