Thank's Mr Syamil
Dear all,
Mr Syamil share 4 web sites where we u learn English for free, they are :
Dear all,
Please visit
1. http://www.manythings.org/
"A fun study site for learners of English as a Second Language.
Word games, puzzles, quizzes, exercises, slang, proverbs and much more."
2. http://www.englishclub.com
"Lessons, games, quizzes, forums, chat, lesson plans, jobs & more for ESL
(English as a second language) learners & teachers."
3. http://www.uiowa.edu/~acadtech/phonetics/#
The sound of spoken language
"English is not Phonetic
Always remember that English is not "phonetic". That means that we do not
always say a word the same way that we spell it.
Some words can have the same spelling but different pronunciation, for
example:
I like to read [ri:d].
I have read [red] that book.
Some words have different spelling but the same pronunciation, for example:
I have read [red] that book.
My favourite colour is red [red]. "
4. http://www.rong-chang.com/
Those four websites provide many things that you have not learned in your
regular English classroom.
For example, visit http://www.rong-chang.com/ , click pronunciation on the
left column, then click "Word Stress. Learn where to put a stress in a
word."
Although I learned "sentence intonation," to be honest with you, I did
not learn "word stress" at all in Indonesia.
"Word stress is your magic key to understanding spoken English. Native
speakers of English use word stress naturally. Word stress is so natural for
them that they don't even know they use it. Non-native speakers who speak
English to native speakers without using word stress, encounter two
problems:
1.. They find it difficult to understand native speakers, especially those
speaking fast.
2.. The native speakers may find it difficult to understand them. "
"There are many two-syllable words in English whose meaning and class change
with a change in stress.
The word present, for example is a two-syllable word. If we stress the first
syllable, it is a noun (gift) or
an adjective (opposite of absent). But if we stress the second syllable, it
becomes a verb (to offer). "
You can also find a web link to help you reduce your accent. We may think
that we speak English fluently. However, if we still have a "strong"
Indonesian accent, native speakers may not be able to
understand us properly. :-)
Good luck,
