Today's key word is Fluency
Fluency F-l-u-e-n-c-y
流利 流暢 (名詞)
Someone who is fluent in a particular language can speak the language easily and correctly.
Here is an example:
Fluency in spoken English is essential for those who want to study in the UK.
對想要去英國留學的人來說,講一口流利的英語很重要。
Here are some tips that will help you speak English better than ever.
1. Accept That English Is a Weird Language
你要先知道英語真的是一種奇怪的語言
Sometimes you can find patterns in English grammar, but other times English doesn't make sense at all.
語法這種東西若有若無,無法捉摸。
Sometimes English is just weird and unexplainable(無法解釋).
So a good memory is very useful when talking about learning English.
2. Practice makes perfect
每周花一天時間拼命的學幾個小時英語并不會讓你的口語有很大的提高。
The better way to quickly improve your English is to spend at least a few minutes practicing every day.
If you want to speak English fluently, you need to make it an essential part of your daily life.
比如,你可以每天聽聽英語悠選的節目,然后跟著讀一讀。
3. You are an English speaker.
Stop thinking of yourself as someone who is learning English, and start thinking of yourself as someone who speaks English.
遇到自己會說的英語時,就堂堂正正的講出來,自信對于學英語來說非常非常非常重要。
This also means you need to start thinking in English.
比如你看到公交車,你可能需要先在腦子里獲取中文然后再找尋對應的英文。這種中文轉化為英文的過程,也會影響英語的熟練程度。
Instead, try imagining a picture of a bus, and then just think the English word “bus”.這很難,也需要很多時間。
Real fluency happens when you stop mentally translating conversations.
4. Remember the Answer Is in the Question
答案就在問題里
If someone asks you a question and you're not sure how to answer, start by thinking about the words used in the question.
For example:
Does he….. Yes, he does.
Can she…. Yes, she can.
Is it…. Yes, it is.
問問題的人其實就把答案給你了,只要你認真聽并且能記住他說了什么?考試的時候這一招超級管用。
There are a lot of simple ways and you can make good use of them to make it easier to remember the right words.
