2. Basis of oral English learning
(1) You must learn phonetic symbols well. Phonetic symbols are of little importance. Phonetic symbols are not only the study of phonetic symbols, but also the study of weak tones, rising tones and falling tones ... Buy a phonetic symbol book with all the knowledge in it, and make sure you know the rules of English pronunciation.
Only by learning phonetic symbols well can you speak correct spoken English. Oral English is not about who speaks faster and more fluently, but about whether your pronunciation is clear and accurate. When you learn spoken English, you can practice with audio while learning phonetic symbols.
(2) Oral English practice requires "naturalness" in addition to pronunciation standards. No matter what kind of spoken English material you choose, you must find a material with standard audio, don't read it yourself, and imitate its intonation with the audio.
don't feel strange to hear your own voice. When you read along with the audio, record the sound and compare the gap between you and the audio. Correct the bad reading and make your pronunciation closer to native English speakers.
(3) Many American dramas are colloquial. You can go online to find some American TV dramas recommended by others that are suitable for practicing oral English and imitating pronunciation.
English news channels are news after all, so the English audio they broadcast is not available every day. You still need to find your own daily spoken English materials to practice.
Now there are many English learning applications that can be dubbed on mobile phones. Practice some of your favorite dubbing, and your interest in English will grow.
(4) After mastering the above three points, think about it. What do you still lack? Language environment, of course. The way to practice oral English is to chat with foreigners. You can only learn Chinglish by chatting with China people.
3. Oral English learning methods
Language input and output promote each other and are inseparable in foreign language learning. Input is the premise and foundation, while output is the result and purpose. It is very important to master methods in the process of oral English learning.
The foundation of English is actually words. Words need to accumulate over time. Although many people understand this truth, at the same time, many people still don't know how to recite them. In fact, memorizing words is a process of accumulation. Instead of holding textbooks for two days and fishing for three days, you should learn by rote, and seize the good time in the morning, even if it is only 11 to 21 words a day. Then your vocabulary is already a considerable number in a year. Read it out loud in the process of memorizing, because most of the time, English is for speaking, not just for the exams in life.
I wonder if you have ever wondered why foreigners can learn naturally without learning. In fact, it is very simple, because English is their mother tongue, and everyone speaks English naturally, so it is a matter of course. If you immerse yourself in it, you can blurt it out at ordinary times. Therefore, English teaching, as a major feature, is deeply loved by the majority of students. Speaking together, playing together and chatting like friends can not only make learning smoother, but also make learning more relaxed and natural.
Finally, I would like to give my advice to English lovers and learners. If they don't understand, they must communicate in time. Teaching and preaching are mutual. There is no shortcut to learning, and success comes from everyone's long-term efforts!
And vocabulary also comes from life. Always pay attention to the dribs and drabs around you, English TV dramas, English songs, English movies and so on are the source of your accumulation. Always pay attention and imitate will also make your pronunciation more and more standard.
The most important thing in learning spoken English is practice. Many students dare not speak, and become dumb English over time. Don't be afraid to make mistakes. As long as you do, it will be wrong. That's your experience, your knowledge, and only your own. These mistakes are precious. People can only learn, pronounce, grammar and communicate through constant mistakes.
4. Key points of oral English practice
English has become an international language. In order to practice English well, it is very important to speak fluent spoken English, and from the cognitive process of language, human beings have always been able to speak before they can read. Learning English should also learn to speak first, that is, to learn spoken English. However, due to the differences in pronunciation skills between native Chinese and English, China people still need to make great efforts to learn spoken English. Here are some practical pronunciation skills: sound, shape, qi, strength, sound, rhythm and intonation.
Voice: It means to speak in a low voice when pronouncing English, and the voice is low and sticky.
type: pay attention to the mouth shape of pronunciation. The lips in the front of the mouth are closed. If you want to make sound in the back of the mouth, you have to stop the front of the mouth and the excessive opening and closing movement of the lips and teeth.
sound: it means to pronounce the root sound of the tongue mainly with vowels. English is a language with the root of the tongue, and many sounds are produced by the root of the tongue. When speaking English, it is like talking to others with the root of the tongue. If you can't move the root of the tongue, you can't pronounce English correctly. Section
: that is, to master the rhythm of pronunciation, or elastic pronunciation, refers to pronunciation in groups, each group of sounds has an accent, and the other sounds are light sounds, which reduces the workload of pronunciation.
Tone: That is to say, the pronunciation should master the English intonation, understand the turning and transformation, and make it tactfully ups and downs, naturally beautiful, and English without turning is ugly.
Qi: Pay attention to the gentle use of Qi in English pronunciation and learn to pronounce consonants lightly. Chinese pronunciation is heavy and impulsive, while English pronunciation is light and soft, and it has the characteristics of "beautiful pronunciation". When you speak English, you should change the pronunciation of "blowing" to "inhaling". When you speak English to a candle, the flame should not move, and when you speak English to your palm, you should not feel too heavy blowing.
strength: it means to use force and softness when pronouncing, to suppress the popping sound, and to pronounce words with beautiful voice.
5. Ways to teach yourself spoken English
Improving spoken English is inseparable from a lot of practical practice. The ideal way is to practice spoken English with native English speakers. Such a language environment and atmosphere will be of great help to you.
It is true that the more oral English practice, the better. But if we can't practice oral English with native English speakers at ordinary times, we can also find some other ways to practice oral English, which can also be improved to some extent.
Even if you practice oral English alone and no one communicates with you, you can gradually find a sense of English, improve your ability and boost your confidence as long as you speak.
Phonetic stage is the foundation of language learning, and laying a good foundation is the key to learning a language well. A child has been listening silently for more than a year before he speaks. There is a saying that "ten deaf people and nine dumb people". Generally speaking, there are nine deaf people in ten who can neither hear nor speak.
In our English study, it is necessary to have input before we can have output. English listening is not good, and it is impossible to speak English well. China students' reading ability has always been very strong, which is the result of our long-term reading. Everything you write is fixed on paper, and when you look at it, you feel like an acquaintance, while your listening and speaking ability is like uncultivated land.
There are also many ways to practice oral English. For example, we can find some listening materials to listen to repeatedly, or watch a lot of native movies, which can improve our English listening.
In addition, I'm afraid it's more difficult to talk when practicing alone, because without someone to communicate with, it will be strange and even difficult to continue the dialogue with yourself.
In fact, you can also practice speaking by yourself. Here are two ways. First of all, we can express everything that happens around us in English. If conditions permit, speak it out loud. In this process, we should not consider whether our speech or grammar is correct. With limited English, we can first say and describe one thing completely.
another way is to simulate a conversation. We can find a topic that interests us, and we can imagine talking about it with someone. You can play role A and role B respectively and use English from different angles of thinking. This practice method is also very effective.
However, no matter what kind of practice method, we must insist on practicing oral English every day. You can't fish for three days and dry the net for two days, otherwise, the most effective method is useless.
