I don’t think you can learn foreign language without any aims. And you must have your goal to get the skill to communicate with someone.
You know it’s not interesting only to read your text, and only to study grammar. Without touching other cultures, you will have difficulty in studying it. So I’ll show you how to get the skill in a joyful and exciting way.
What is that?
Lyrics or scripts are living. And those words have their backgrounds. So you can learn English effectively through music and movies.
It’s probably easy to remember the plural form, for example, “child” and “ox” are “children” and “oxen”, but it’s difficult to answer immediately those of “focus” and “index” are “foci” and “indices” each. These are the conjugated form coming from Latin.
However, it seems that it has been changing recently in native speakers. You can see the changing in the movie “Top Gun” (1986) <00:26:45>
Maverick: Yes, Ma’am. The data on the MIG is inaccurate.
As you know, “data” is the plural form of “datum”. As seen from the above, it sometimes happens that this word is used as the singular form. The word “media” is the same above. So the rules of vocabularies from Latin have been gone by slow degrees.
This is only an example. There are more useful expressions. So let’s study through the movie and music.
Let’s study joyful English!!!
