Are you hot, sexy, and single?
Well that's tempting ;) but you know what could turn it off? BAD ENGLISH.
Bad; bad in english
Worse; lazy to learn
Worst; refuse to learn english.
Yaa, i know that you love Malay language so much but please dude, dont make this "bahasa ibunda" thingy as a reason for you to refuse learning English.
Why should you learn? Well first and foremost, Malay isn't a language yang conquer the world. Memanglah pernah, so what should you highlight? PERNAH. Know why Japanese and French dont have to learn other languages and demand others to speak their languages? Because their country are ones that dominate the Earth (eceh) now, ulang suara, NOW. So you cant make this "lingua franca" yang you learned in Form 1 as an excuse cos benda tu only in history... lepas.... dah habis.... move on.... boleh?
Sometimes kan, aku rasa, Malaysia ni lambat berkembang sebab ego. Ego taknak adapt, ego taknak belajar, and terlampau agung agungkan sejarah yang kita takkan mampu ulangi. Hambekko puitis. Well if you read Who Moved My Cheese?, you will find that the wisest person is the one yang move on cepat and keep excel themselves. So, kalau nak conquer dunia balik macam zaman Parameswara, conquerlah ilmu-ilmu yang takkan habis ni.
Back to the topic, weh sumpah weh, aku rasa macam "Ala..." dengan mamat yang hot, smart, or anyone lah yang dari boarding school tapi English agak K.O. Sampai ada satu tahap, aku terfikir "If they could get As in Chemistry, Physics, and Additional Mathematics, why cant they at least have a decent grammar in English?"
So how do you improve yourself in English?
- Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. Be confident. People can only correct your mistakes when they hear you make them.
- Surround yourself in English. Put yourself in an all English speaking environment where you can learn passively. The best way to learn is through speaking.
- Practise every day. Make yourself a study plan. Decide how much time a week you are going to spend studying and stick to it. Establish a routine.
- Tell your family and friends about your study plan. Get them to push you to study and also don’t let them interrupt you.
- Practise the 4 core skills: reading, writing, speaking and listening. They all need to be worked on for you to improve.
- Keep a notebook of new words you learn. Use them in sentences and try to say them at least 3 times when you speak.
- Do a lesson at least once a day.
(Googled them ahaha)
but this is my personal opinion la tau,
1. Be friends with those who speak English is a norm kan? Now be friends with non Malays!
2. Add strangers on Facebook and chat with them (IN ENGLISH ONLY) ok this one, you will be labelled as a freak but... let them talk. It's not that you know them in real life.
3. Omegle.com , this part.. if it's 2011 i really encourage you guys to follow but now, if you play omegle, it's only "Add me on KIK", "Im feeling naughty" or if you add specification, e.g; Malaysia, it's only "22M. Asl?". But it's ok, just act cool and reject or lecture them with good english
4. Read novels. Start with Sophie Kinsella :p
5. Read Reader's Digest.
6. Read-> Use some catchy phrases when chatting with friends -> "Formalize" them bcs you need to use formal English in interviews and official letters, right? :)
7. Speak English in mind. Because "bitch" sounds better than "betina jalang" LOL apa aku merepek
Warning; Brace yourselves with those bitches and assholes who talk bad or make fun of you talking or learning in English. Remember this one thing; those who make fun of you are actually making fun of themselves.
If you wanna go international, speak international. Unless kau Siti Nurhaliza. Huhuhuhu
ok, Bye Assalammualaikum!
