“यार समझ तो सब लेता हूँ , बस , बोल नह ं पाता…!” Here, I am going to suggest some rules, and in order to follow these rules, you must be able to understand English. Now go through all the rules…

has to be in English. A scientific study has shown that if you read good comics, you will develop an exceptional command over the language. If you do not like to read comics, or if you do not have access to good comics, Read at least one article from the internet that is related to your stream. I am listing some websites, if you are not frequenting these websites on a regular basis, you are not using your time intelligently.

Rule #2

Write at least 10 sentences in English EVERYDAY. This is the most important rule. 27/05/2016 10:30

More IMPORTANT than all the rules. But Write USABLE sentences. There is no point of framing sentences which you cannot use in your daily conversation. Frame simple & short sentences…. EVERYDAY. To improve your English communication FOLLOW these steps in verbatim. The FIRST thing, WRITE, at least, 10 sentences in English, every day. The SECOND thing, GET it CORRECTED by a good English teacher. The THIRD thing, PRACTICE the improvement suggested. The FOURTH thing REPEAT the cycle, as long as you are not satisfied with your level of your proficiency. This is a tried and tested method, which I am using with my students, with 100% success. 27/05/2016 10:30

Writing fixes the vocabulary, meaning, spelling, & patterns of sentences of all kinds in your mind. Writing is the most involving and comprehensive language ability. Practice it to perfect it.

Rule #3

Listen, because… "कोई भी भाषा सन ु के ह सीखी जाती है ." You can learn to speak a language only by listening.

Rule # 4 27/05/2016 10:30

The best way to learn to speak is to speak. There is no point in trying to speak English with people who WANT to learn English. Reason? they CANNOT correct you. Practice does NOT make a man perfect.

PERFECT Practice makes a man perfect! Therefore, the best and the most logical way to learn to speak English (correctly and fluently) is to hire a personal trainer, and then speak under his guidance.

NEVER consult the dictionary to see the meaning of the word. Always try to guess the meaning of the word. If you are unable to guess the meaning … LEAVE it…!!! Consult dictionary if &only if, the context is not present. As far as, the dictionary is concerned, there are only 2 dictionaries in the world, 1. Oxford Dictionary, if you want to know everything about the word. 2. Cambridge Dictionary, if you want to know the CORRECT usage.

Rule # 6

Get it checked by a good English teacher. This is the only rule, where you need an able teacher. Otherwise, for learning any language, there is no need of any teacher at all.

Rule # 7 NEVER study grammar. The only reason is that in English, there are 10,000 rules, and 11,000 exceptions.

That is to say that, first of all, you have to learn the rules, and then you have to bother yourself about the exceptions for the rest of your life. Learning grammar, in the initial stages of learning a language, causes confusion. What you should do is that you should LISTEN to what NATIVE SPEAKERS speak in general, and you will learn what you should speak in general. Secondly, there is one more thing, which most of the English Teachers do not know. Knowledge of grammar hampers the fluency, articulation & spontaneity.

Do you know what the Oxford wallahs say? “If you want to learn English, do not study grammar for the first five years of learning English.” And therefore, my dear students, you will learn grammar only & only by using it, and never by learning the rules of grammar. And here, I would like to suggest one thing. Read / Write / Listen / Speak English without studying grammar for one complete year, and after that start learning the basics. If you want to learn the basics (good enough to speak with reasonable accuracy & fluency), 27/05/2016 10:30

Rule # 12

How to improve your vocabulary DRAMATICALLY? Learn ETYMOLOGY. What is etymology? Etymology is the study of the 27/05/2016 10:30

Lesson 23 - 18 absolute rules to learn English

20 de 30

http://www.biseriapuneet.com/topics/communication-skills/904-14-absol...

origins of the words. It also includes the developments in meaning of a word. Why is etymology so important? Originally English had only 13500 words. Later, in order to make it rich, a lot of words majorly from LATIN and GREEK languages were absorbed. The English have absorbed so many words that now it has 6,00,000 words. Here are the 7 reason why you should study Etymology.

Reason # 1 ~~~~~~~~~~~ Etymology is the study of/about the origin of the words. 80% of the English words are derived from Latin and Greek words. So if you learn/understand etymology, you can understand 27/05/2016 10:30

Lesson 23 - 18 absolute rules to learn English

21 de 30

http://www.biseriapuneet.com/topics/communication-skills/904-14-absol...

almost 80% of English words. You will develop a deeper understanding of the meaning of the word Not only this, etymology will make it easier for you to learn new words.

Reason # 2 ~~~~~~~~~~~ Etymology helps you understand longer words. A long word is a short way to explain a very lengthy concept. What would be easier for you, to write the process of photosynthesis or just write photosynthesis? Long words are transparent, and therefore allows you to be lucid.

Reason # 3 ~~~~~~~~~~~ Etymology makes you APPEAR intelligent. 27/05/2016 10:30

Lesson 23 - 18 absolute rules to learn English

22 de 30

http://www.biseriapuneet.com/topics/communication-skills/904-14-absol...

With etymology You understand the logic of the word. And you can be a bit Shakespearean if you like

Reason # 4 ~~~~~~~~~~~ Etymology lets you LEARN 1000s of words painlessly. The word has 3 parts prefix, root, suffix. The prefix and suffix gives the direction to the meaning of the root. And ROOT is that part of the word that CONTAINS the ORIGINAL MEANING which never changes. If you know all the three, the exercise of vocabulary building become more rewarding.

Reason # 5 ~~~~~~~~~~~ 27/05/2016 10:30

Lesson 23 - 18 absolute rules to learn English

http://www.biseriapuneet.com/topics/communication-skills/904-14-absol...

We are the people who only read headlines to understand everything. Etymology lets you explain things using the fewest words possible. And that too, precisely. You can create the impression of an expert.

Reason # 6 ~~~~~~~~~~~ Etymology lets you associate your learning more radically. If you want to learn something new, you have to associate it with something you already know. You will learn more words, if you learn more ABOUT WORDS.

Reason # 7 ~~~~~~~~~~~ Etymology lets you boost your vocabulary by leaps and bounds. 27/05/2016 10:30

By etymology, you can learn/understand the entire sets of words IMMEDIATELY. You can even guess the meaning of the word, CORRECTLY, even if you have NEVER for seen that word.

Rule # 13

If you want to learn new words at at exceptional rate. And if you want to remember it forever. Search the word in google images.
