Historically, fire is one of the most powerful tools that man has ever known. Before ancient people were able to domesticate fire, they had a hard time doing the most basic things – including cooking food and keeping warm during cold weather.

Now, we routinely use fire in our homes and on campouts, getting just inches away from a flame!

With that great power, of course, comes great responsibility. While fire is very powerful, it can sometimes be very harmful. When it is out of control, it can burn down entire forests, houses, and even neighborhoods.

While most people think of the flames that help us cook food, fire can also refer to gunfire. If someone shoots a gun, you can say they “fire a gun”.

Another meaning of “fire” is to tell someone that they no longer have a job with you. If you ask them to leave your company, you have fired them from their job.

The following collocations show the various uses of “fire” in English phrases.

Adjective + Fire (meaning flames)

1. Forest fire

If there is a fire in a forest, those are known as forest fires. They typically refer to fires that are large and can cover a huge area, such as the Yellowstone National Park fires of 1988.

They often happen because of buildup of old, dead leaves and animals on the forest floor. This provides fuel for the fires, and if the weather is dry and hot, a strike of lightning can lead to a large forest fire.

• The forest fire led to hundreds of people being displaced from their homes near the edge of the forest.
• When there is a large forest fire, they have to ask the national fire control to prevent the fire from growing larger, which is a difficult task.

2. Destructive fire

A destructive fire is one that destroys many things. It usually happens where people or animals live, so the fire destroys their homes or habitats.

• Millions of frogs and birds no longer had homes after the large, destructive fire.
• The huge lightning storm was scary, but the real damage was caused by the destructive fires that they produced when they lit several houses and dead trees on fire.

3. Disastrous fire

A disastrous fire is a complete disaster. This is usually because many things are destroyed and people or animals could be hurt.

• The disastrous fire left thousands of people homeless, and the city did not have the infrastructure to deal with the massive problem.
• The disastrous fire of Yellowstone National Park actually had some benefits the local wildlife, which began to thrive again shortly after the scorch.

4. Fierce fire

A fierce fire is one that is combative. It often results in various types of damage to property and life. It can also be very difficult to control, which present an additional problem.

• The fierce fire spread to three different apartment buildings before the fire fighters could stop it.
• Liam tried to make his circus act more exciting by introducing a fierce fire routine, but got rid of it when he noticed it would be too dangerous.

5. Crackling fire

Crackling usually refers to a campfire, or a fire that campers set at night when they are sitting around the woods next to their tents.

It gets the name from the sounds it makes; every so often a spark may fly out and “crackle”. This is a distinctive sound that can be paired with camping experiences.

• The girl scout troop sat around the crackling fire, singing campout songs.
• Toby lit the crackling fire and handed out sticks for everyone roast marshmallows with.

6. Roaring fire

A roaring fire is a huge fire, usually one that towers over people. The roaring adjective refers to the loud sound that such a fire makes. It often sounds like very fast wind that rushes past your ears.

• The sound of the roaring fire woke Jake up.

Verb + Fire (meaning flames)

8. To be on fire

This phrase has both a literal and a figurative meaning. To literally be on fire means that something is flaming and burning, such as a burning building.

If something is metaphorically on fire, it means that it is making great progress or is becoming very popular in a short time. If it describes a person, it means that the person is having success after success, and other people have noticed it.

• Katie did not realize that her cookies in the oven were on fire until her smoke alarm went off and she started to smell the smoke.

9. To catch on fire

Similar to being on fire, catching on fire has a literal and a figurative meaning.

Something that catches on fire begins to burn, and a thing or person that metaphorically catches on fire begins to become extremely popular and/or successful. Typically, the metaphorical use of the phrase is catch fire instead of adding the on in between the words.

• Monica never thought that her idea to sell cupcakes on her college campus would catch fire, but she started making enough money that she could hire bakers and quit her other job.
• Chuck started to panic when he saw the paper catch on fire, but some quick thinking and the water faucet nearby helped him save the rest of the papers.

10. To set on fire

If you set something on fire, you deliberately make something start to burn. This could be putting a match to it, for example. Setting something on fire usually results in a large fire, at least enough to burn a couple of papers.

• The arsonist wanted to get revenge on his boss who fired him, so he tried to set the boss’s house on fire.
• At the end of the semester, Melanie decided to set her workbooks and essays on fire.

11. To add fuel to the fire

If you add fuel to the fire, you literally put wood or gasoline into it. As long as something is flammable and can catch on fire, and you put it in an existing fire, you add fuel to the fire. This phrase also has a metaphorical meaning, referring to someone who provokes a “fire” – or an argument, a fight, etc.

• Hollie added fuel to the campfire to keep it going.
• Rolando tried to diffuse the argument by telling his wife that he was sorry, but he only added fuel to the fire when he said the wrong thing.
