How to study in the UK to improve oral English?
First of all, we need to understand what are the key elements of speaking well?
If your fluency in the above five categories is well within your vocabulary, congratulations, your fluency is already excellent.
I’m going to talk about how to improve each of these five areas.
The basis of a good spoken language is pronunciation, and the basis of pronunciation is phonetic script.
Therefore, the children who do not know the phonetic symbols, please be sure to learn the phonetic symbols first.
Many people struggle to learn British or American accents.
This is mainly to see personal interests and hobbies, listen to a VOA and, or watch a US TV series and a British TV series, feel which kind of tone I prefer, which kind of like to learn!
Don’t worry if you learn the American accent, you won’t understand the British, and if you learn the British accent, you won’t understand the American. These two accents are very pure.
Learning phonetic symbols and spelling individual words correctly is only the first step in idiomatic speaking.
Second, we have to practice intonation, which is called accent. This is the hardest part.
I am often asked why I sound like a Chinese person speaking English when I speak English.
How can I be like English native speakers?
The key is intonation.
Chinese people have Chinese intonation, Japanese people have Japanese intonation, Russians have Russian intonation.
We are all influenced by this language.
So, to have an authentic Cockney or American accent, what we need is deliberate practice and a lot of imitation.
The third key to speaking well is vocabulary.
The problem with many people’s language is that they want to say it but can’t express it. They don’t know how to say it in English. This is the problem of vocabulary.
So, the necessary basic vocabulary is still necessary.
Notice, I said the necessary basic vocabulary.
That is to say, 1368 words is enough for everyday spoken English.
mar The fourth key to speaking well is grammar.
Of course, the grammar used in everyday speech is relatively simple, consisting mostly of simple sentences and compound sentences, with the occasional clause possible.
So, if you don’t have a need for the exam, don’t be so demanding to use difficult sentence patterns. Practice simple sentences first.
Don’t underestimate the simple sentence, many people have learned English for more than ten years, “she” and “he” still confused, verb single three always forget to add -s, past tense verbs forget to add -ed.
Such a simple knowledge of grammar, can’t you?
Of course not can not, but not skilled.
So all you have to do is talk and talk and talk.
If you are still in school, you can “hook up” with foreign teachers, ha ha, take part in English corner, English speech contest, debate contest and so on.
It is ok to practice with your roommates.
