need a website to search for commonly used idioms

dear friends,

I am looking for a website that explains the correct usage of idioms, such as 'intent on', 'intend to' and NOT 'intent to' or 'intend on'..

thanks in advance..

These are collocations, not idioms, Sharad. I am not aware of any good website, but there are several good dictionaries of collocations-- the one I happen to have is the BBI Dictionary of English Word Combinations.
