    This paper is a corpus-based study on the maximizers absolutely, perfectly, totally, and utterly. These maximizers are described as ‘synonymous’ in most English dictionaries. Even though their lexical meanings and syntactic patterns are similar, their semantic preferences and collocational patterns are not exactly the same. For this reason, the purpose of this study is to find out how those English maximizers tend to collocate with particular words and have different semantic preferences. Based on the British National Corpus and the Corpus of Contemporary American English, the collocational patterns of the maximizers were investigated in terms of positive, negative, and neutral meanings. The results of this study reveal that absolutely has a strong tendency to collocate with positive lexemes. Similarly, perfectly co-occurs with positive and neutral lexemes. In contrast, utterly strongly tends to collocate with negative lexemes. Totally tends to collate with neutral and negative lexemes.
