Present Perfect Tense- Experiences

Past Simple

It seems that, nowadays, everyone is in a hurry and wants things to happen immediately. We want to do everything faster: communicate fast, move quickly, and talk faster!

But sometimes it's impossible. For example, we know that learning a language is supposed to take a long time. There are different rules and words you have to learn. You have to practice and remember many things.



 



However, you may ask yourself: how can I learn English fast?



On the Internet, you can find many tips and free essays samples(https://www.wowessays.com/free-samples/) on English language teaching. But what tips should you follow to learn English fast? You can choose the learning methods that work best for you. But that means you have to try different ways before you find your favorite. In other words, you have to waste time trying different methodologies that are useless until you find the perfect one.

If you are eager to learn English, then you should pay attention to what the science says!

The science of language learning

Language learning is a critical field of study for scientists. It is because the ability to learn complex languages is something that differentiates humans from animals.

Science knows how the human brain works (for the most part) and the logic behind oral language and learning.

Many scientific studies focus on how humans learn languages. Some research tries to understand how and why we learn words, while others study the benefits of speaking more than one language. Similarly, some studies focus exclusively on babies (who are excellent at learning languages), while others look at adults.

As you can see, there are many studies! What could you do with all this information?

By understanding how and why we learn languages, you can improve your English skills faster and easier.

Check out these scientific studies on how to learn English fast right now!



How to learn English fast with 7 scientific tips



1. Listen to a lot of English



What science says:

Scientists have special terms for one of the ways we learn languages: unconscious or implicit learning. In this kind of education, you don't have to sit at a desk and study grammar rules over and over again.

Implicit learning happens without you even trying. All you have to do is listen to a lot of English without paying attention. When you hear the sound of English in the background, your brain automatically absorbs the sounds, accents, words, and grammar, even if you're not paying attention or taking notes.

The best part is that you can learn without even understanding the meaning of the words. Several studies show that it is possible to learn any language this way. Through this method, several people have learned false languages that scientists invented for their research.

The explanation behind this phenomenon lies in the patterns of language. When you listen to a specific style, you determine patterns. That's the way children learn! Babies don't understand language, so all they can do is look. So they spend all their time listening carefully to the language around them until, in the end, they understand the meanings of the words.

What you can do:

Listen to as much English as you can. Whenever you get a chance, make sure your playback sounds in English, whether in your room or office.

Watch TV programs or listen to music or audiobooks in English. Visit places where you can hear native speakers of the language. You don't have to concentrate too much on listening. You can just walk around, enjoy the scenery, wash the dishes, read a book, exercise, finish your homework, or work while you listen.

It doesn't matter what you do. If you listen to sounds in English, you will soon improve your skills.



2. Know the similarities



What science says:

Luckily, we have some good news. According to this study, all human beings are born with the ability to distinguish sounds that make sense. Although all languages are different, they share some similarities.

For example, even though some English words begin with the letters "BL" (like "blink"), there is no term that starts with the letters "LB." Just try to pronounce that sound. It doesn't make sense! Some sounds don't make any sense, even to babies who can't speak.

What can you do:

Keep this in mind when you're learning English.

If you find a word or sound that doesn't make sense, chances are it doesn't exist in the language.

Also, knowing that some sounds don't exist in English, you can improve your spelling. For example, if you want to spell the word "ghost" correctly and you don't know if the "h" comes before the "g," say the word out loud. If you try to say "ghost," the "GH" sound is meaningless. Right? On the other hand, the "GH" sound is reasonable. Use it!



3. Learn new sounds separately



What science says:

English can change the way your brain works. Surprisingly, if you learn a new language, you can improve your mental abilities! One study found that language learning stimulates the growth of certain parts of the brain. And the higher the growth, the easier it is to learn a new language.

However, the most exciting thing the experiment found is that the brain reacts differently to every sound.

For example, the letters "L" and "R" can be challenging to learn for people whose languages do not have distinct sounds for each letter (like the Japanese). The study found that when native English speakers heard the letters "L" and "R," two parts of the brain were activated. But, in the case of the Japanese, only one part of the brain was activated.

What you can do:

Before you can speak and understand English as a native speaker, you have to learn the sounds. This publication is full of valuable information about English sounds and how they are pronounced.

Determine which sounds are most difficult for you and study them.

How to learn English fast? Some experiments show that you can learn the sounds in as little as an hour if you listen to them at a deficient speed - that's fast!

You don't need any special software to play the sounds slowly, because YouTube does it for you. Find some videos that show the sound (or sounds) you want to hear. For example, this is an excellent video with different words that use the letters "R" and "L."

4. Use word associations



What science says:

Word associations connect words, sounds, movements, ideas, or images. For example, if you hear the music "meow," you associate it with a cat. When you see a picture of the sun, you immediately associate it with the words "sun," "warm," and "hot. It is not something you should think about, as the words come to mind immediately.

Learning English words through association is not only fun but also quite useful. A group of scientists conducted a study on sign language, a form of communication that deaf people have that uses hand and finger movements instead of sounds.

The experiment found that it is much easier to remember signs that resemble the object they represent. For example, it's easy to remember the sign for "eat" because it looks like a person eating, while it's hard to remember signs that don't look like the word.

What you can do:

Learn new words in a group. Combine a name with a picture, a movement, or another word. With this connection in mind, you will be able to remember all the concepts more quickly.

Move your hands and body to show the meaning of the words (at least until you can remember them easily). You can also draw some pictures instead of writing down the definitions of the terms.

One fun activity is to draw the words so that they look like what they mean - look at this example in the Google picture search and follow it! This exercise will not only help you remember the meanings, but also the spelling.



5. Remember patterns, not rules



Can you repeat the pattern? The ability to remember and repeat patterns can be quite useful for learning a new language.

In this research, scientists showed a group of students a set of figures. Languages have patterns. And, if you find the designs, you can learn the language more easily.

What you can do:

Maybe you've already spent time studying the rules of English grammar and spellig. But instead of seeing them as rules, think of them as patterns.

Let's look at an example of regular past tense. The rule says, "To change a regular verb into a past tense, add 'ED' at the end if you can remember the rule verbatim, perfect! For most of us, it's hard to understand what these rules are about unless we see them in action.

To see this rule as a pattern, just pay attention to this group of regular verbs and their past tense conjugation.

Rain - Rained

Want - Wanted

Learn - Learned

See the pattern? Let's take the next step. The next group of words has some differences from the previous one.

Plan - Planned

Rot - Rotted

Stop - Stopped

See the difference? What's the pattern? For these last three verbs, there is a rule that says: "When a verb ends in a consonant or vowel-consonant, the last letter is repeated before adding "ED."

So, the next time you have trouble memorizing the rules, just pay attention to the patterns.



6. Learn Phrases, Not Words



What science says:

ome words have one meaning when they're alone, but a different sense when they're grouped with other words. When you hear or read a sentence in English, look for these groups of words.

For example, the sentence "I ran around" means that you are running around aimlessly. However, if you add two more words, their meaning changes completely. For example: "I ran around the park" = "I ran through the park. It will help you learn more about the sentence and the words in it.

You may not find this surprising, but until recently, linguists believed that humans hear the whole sentence and then break it down into parts. However, one study found that word order can be more important than the entire sentence.

What you can do:

Learning individual words can be difficult, as they may have several meanings. Don't think you can use a name only if you know its general purpose. Therefore, when you want to expand your vocabulary, look for words in sentences.

For example, the word "retrospect" means "to analyze the past state of something. However, you will probably never use this term without putting the word "in" first. For example: "In retrospect, I shouldn't have eaten the whole cake. Study the way words are grouped together, and you will be able to speak English more naturally.



7. Learn with music



What science says:

Remember those nursery rhymes you used to sing when you were a kid? Surely you can still sing them today, even if you learned them a long time ago. How can you remember them so well?

Music is an essential part of children's language learning. That's why there are children's rounds to learn numbers, letters, vowels, and words. Repetition of songs and music helps children remember essential parts of the language.

Adults can also learn more easily through music. Language is generally considered an essential skill, while music is not. However, one study states that the methods for determining music and poetry are very similar and that both skills are equally important. For example, we learn that "ba" and "da" are two different sounds in the same way that we recognize that a trumpet and a piano are two instruments with different sounds.
