What verbs go with "knowledge base"?

[LeTyan]

Hi,

Can I say "expand" or "enrich" one's knowledge/vocabulary base?

Thank you!

 

[Rover_KE]

Yes.

 

[Matthew Wai]

Some people say "widen the tax base", does "widen" collocate with knowledge base too?

I am not a teacher.

I think that you could use any verb that expresses the idea of enlargement of a physical base, since that is the metaphor. They won't all be equally common in use but probably perfectly understandable.

I would suggest "broaden".

My preference is "expand".
