Basic Rules of English Speaking

# Getting your grammar right

 Excess of everything is bad, this rule holds true for English grammar for speaking purposes. The rule might sound a bit strange to some students but it is observed that learning too much of grammar often confuses students and hampers a great deal with the vocal fluency as people often get confused in the nuances of grammar and loose time when speaking. That being said it is also necessary that you have the working knowledge of grammar, very basic grammar skills, that are all that you require. Even most of the native speakers of this language themselves don’t know complete grammar.

The thing here is that there is a choice, you could choose to be a grammar geek or you can speak the language with the fluency of natives.

# Learning to use phrases

Vocabulary and phrases are two pillars of English speaking and sentence formation. However, one pillar holds more weight in speaking than the other; that pillar is phrases. A lot of students spend considerable amounts of time in learning all the new words that they can but still seem to lag in fluent English speaking, the reason for that is that learning words don’t help much in sentence formation and the time taken to form sentences, learning phrases can help a great deal in this. Learning a single phrase enables you to make hundreds of correct sentences in no time. Imagine what a 1000 phrases would do- well, you’d be speaking the language like a native in no time.

# Getting your muscles memory going

it is often said that mastering a skill requires that you spend around 10,000 hours on it. English speaking is no different; it is a skill that can be developed to very high levels by putting in the required effort and the right guidance consistently.

Practicing speaking English helps a great deal in improving fluency. It will open up your muscles and also feed muscle memory to your cells so, the next time you want to speak, your mouth muscles will move automatically. To do this, learn to speak what you read and more importantly what you hear.

# Find the right environment: Speaking a language isn’t related to your intelligence, everybody learns to speak up one language even at times without having the formal knowledge of that. It happens when you constantly expose yourself to one such language or maybe more than one. Our brains are capable of learning languages even without an organized and systematic.

To improve your English speaking drastically just submerge yourself in an environment surrounded by English language, read English newspapers, watch English movies, speak the language with your friends and family.
