SPOKEN ENGLISH ISSUES

By Pavan G.K, BA 3rd year JT College, Gadag.

INTRODUCTION

Everyone feels English is a difficult language

English is restricted only during school hours

We being born and brought up in India use native languages in our day to day life

We belong to the family of native language speakers

Every time we speak vocabulary, slang and grammar worries us

This leads to the fear of making mistakes

Pushing us further to use the local language to such an extent that even the teaching of english in schools and colleges are translated to regional language.

Hence English for us is a foreign language

Consistency and timing can overcome pessimism

Framing new sentences, speaking slowly can overcome grammar problem

Denouncing age barrier to learn helps to overcome hesitation

Practise to improve fluency

English should be taught at an early age

Rectification of the problems on individual basis

Solutions appear simple but are difficult to implement

Child should be encouraged to speak at their early age and learn by their mistakes

Students should form teams to express and correct each other, without being let down

Teachers must encourage the students to speak and later rectify their problems

Problems can be solved by bold determination from students, teachers and administration

The take home message is think in english, write in english, speak in english for english is a international language which is essential for every man in some form or the other in our daily life.
