English through movies

In today's post we're not going to talk about trailers, but 

movie trailers. 




Do you know how to learn and practise English through movies, cinema, TV, soap operas, Hollywood, Bollywood  and so on?

Well, first of all,  let's watch a trailer, so that we can decide what to see, and then have a great time watching the film! LOL

Word-building or Word-formation

Basically, we could start off by studying some basic word-formation suffixes and prefixes, which will help you to guess the meaning and grammar of English words.

So, here's your WORD-FORMATION theory and practice to do your best at school. Remember that there are not magical RULES for word-formation, and it's only a question of practice and loads of English exposure.

Let's put it this way...it's time for more words... - no matter your level of English.

Learning a language is like building a house. We need plenty of bricks to be able construct a venue with well-laid foundations and suitable enough for our living expectations: good sights, full of light, and comfortable for our family. By the same token, to produce a fluent speech, it’s necessary to manage a whole array of words, which must be assimilated, practised and used regularly, rather than only translated into the target language. Word-building takes time and what’s even more important: suffixes and prefixes must be recognized; otherwise you won’t make the most of your word-building. For further word-formation practice, you’d better click on words, words, words.

Daily Routines and actions

Would you be able to describe your whole day from waking up to going to bed?


If so, why don't you leave a message telling us about you and you'll practise Daily routines and actions that way.


However, writing about our daily routine can be very dull and boring.

So, we could think about other ways of expressing everyday actions. How about telling a day from a cat's eyes? or the daily routine of a little baby or even a common day of a bird...

                                                                                                         

Well, it's just a question of using your imagination, don't you think? Let's be creative all day long!

What are humans like?

After getting to know each other, it's time for us to describe ourselves, don't you think?



Well, first of all we need some adjectives for describing people. 



Human beings are different and that's what makes us so interesting and appealing to talk about. Every single country and culture with its own features and qualities. 



Let's point out our best strengths as individuals living in the same world!
