Learning English

           If it is said that learning English is difficult, my answer is yes. Because I have learned English more than 10 years, since my primary school until today. I learn English not only discussed in school or college, but I was more than 3 times move English language courses since elementary school until now. But if I could speak English very well? The answer is no, I can only read and write in English, but still not good enough.

            I want to be able to speak English properly, because if do not speak English, to find a job will be quite difficult. Companies in Indonesia today is very selective about choosing candidates for the workers, the minimum should be able to speak English, because English is the international language that required everyone mastered. But in Indonesia itself there are still many who have not mastered the English language well.

            Learning English is to learn the language, if at say learning the language it would be appropriate to say daily habits. Because they can always, it is a thing that we often hear. Like a child in learning to speak, of course, be because it is often trained by his mother, a habit that eventually smoothly by itself without the need for schools to be able to call baby mama papa. So it is with learning English if trained continuously become a habit, then by itself be smooth and fluent. I until now still trying by means of its own to learn English.

            According to the article I read in ESL go.com, the first step to be able to speak English we should diligently read, learn to read English magazines, newspapers in English, English articles. Replacing the story books in English, and do not dwell on the circumstances that make us lazy to read. Read even if we only understand a little, learn diligently repeat what is read, and diligently inquired if what you've read seem elusive.

            Both are diligent listening to songs in English of course, it is also one quick way to learn English. Do not just listen, need to be followed diligently trying to interpret the lyrics of the song. If you find any difficulty in interpreting the words, then the diligent open dictionary. All facilities have been provided, just waiting for the determination to carry it out. Then the last one is diligent practice, do not be shy to try. 'Experience is a good teacher', they are managed is ever a failure, but try again. Can speak English or not all depends on yourself.

            It is now being I try to apply, even though in the beginning of the small things. Because I am including a quitter in doing something that has often failed. Whereas in the English language, we must have strong determination, so that we can speak English well. Actually, for me that is difficult to learn English is located in the use of grammar, which makes me lazy to learn English. Most people grammarnya ability better than its vocabulary, or known as vocabulary. But others have a better vocabulary abilities than his grammar abilities. I was of the most prang which has kemampuang vocabulary better than his grammar abilities. But in both cases the English language should be able to do it well.

            Bell English Online website, english-at-home and English for free which is the online English language learning website explains how the importance of learning grammar and vocabulary in English. Explained that many argue that the grammar can be under-two when learning English, which is important people understand our intentions. Because it is too focused on grammar makes us so busy thinking "Bener or not its grammar? Use the word 'been' or not ", which prevents us to practice.

            This is true as well, but keep in mind the grammar or sentence structure is crucial in the sense, that if one bit can mengakibatkansalah fatal misunderstanding. For example, when we want to ask someone from anywhere he goes, correct sentence is "where have you been?", If we're wrong grammar to be "where are you from" would have been much different meaning, although literally two sentences have meaning "of where ".

            And the importance of Vocabulary, namely Vocabulary or commonly called Vocab is a vocabulary that we have mastered. Of course this is important because the more vocabulary we have, the more that we can say in English. Then in learning English, the more important vocabulary or grammar? Both are equally important, it's just good to us multiply our vocab before compile them into the proper grammar. Because if the master grammar well, but weak in vocabulary, we will have difficulty in speaking. Conversely, if we master the vocabulary but weak in grammar, misunderstandings can occur. As David Wilkins said "Without grammar, little can be conveyed. Without vocabulary, nothing can be conveyed. "

            Learning English by using ways - ways that have been mentioned, may be making us motivated to learn English better. The point is to learn English is with determination and tried as best as possible. With determination and a good effort, learning English becomes easier. That is what makes my motivation to learn English better.
