One of my blogs was given an award--this was from another
blogger, so nothing tremendously exciting.
However, it got me thinking about award collocations.
be given an award
Graham was given an award for bravery.
be presented with an award
Melinda was presented with an award for her community
service.
be awarded something (we can't say awarded an award)
Mellissa was awarded a plaque for her business leadership.
Dennis was awarded a full scholarship to university because of his good test scores.
Here is some useful vocabulary in the same theme. These are things you can be awarded.

| a plaque |

| a medal |

| a ribbon |
