よくある間違い:

Learners often forget to use the particle "up" and say "They ramp production" instead of the more natural "They ramp up production". Also, some learners try to use "ramp" for personal feelings (e.g., *"My anger ramped up"*), which is possible but sounds less natural than saying "My anger increased".
意味

コロケーション
ramp up production
|ramp up efforts
|ramp up spending

コロケーション

コロケーション

|ramp season
|forage for ramps

意味
