"Seni nasıl öğrenebilirim? Yolları saymama izin ver"

Anladın mı?

Bu yazının başlığını 'almak' için, önce Elizabeth Barrett Browning'in 1850'de yayınlanan Sonnet 43'ünün ünlü açılış satırına dayandığını kabul etmelisiniz. O zaman "sen" in "sen" kelimesinin eski bir şekli olduğunu anlamalısınız. Daha sonra, "öğrenmek" olarak değiştirilen "aşk" kelimesindeki kelime oyununu takdir etmeniz gerekir. Son olarak, İngilizce öğrenme fikrini aşk fikrine veya bir aşk emeğine (aynı zamanda bir deyim) benzeten ifadenin tam anlamını ve bunu yapmanın birçok farklı yolunu bulmanız gerekir.

Bu çok fazla adım, ancak akıcı bir İngilizce konuşmacısı muhtemelen anlayacaktır. Bunun nedeni, dili İngilizcekonuşulan bir ülkede çocukluktan itibaren öğrenmiş olmaları, muhtemelen okulda biraz şiir okumuş olmaları ve bu alıntıyı haber medyası, popüler kültür veya bir düğünde özümsemiş olmalarıdır.

Jargonu, deyimleri ve konuÅŸma dilini anlamak, yeni bir dil öğrenmenin en zor kısımlarından biridir. Sadece tekrar tekrar konuÅŸmaya maruz kalarak ve konuÅŸmaya dalarak elde edilir. ³Û±ð³Ù¾±ÅŸ°ì¾±²Ô Öğrencileriçin Global Scale of English Öğrenme Hedefleri'nde, çok çeÅŸitli deyimleri ve konuÅŸma dillerini dinlemek ve tanımak, C1'in en üst kenarında, 83'e kadar görünmez. KonuÅŸmak için, karmaşık konularda akıcı konuÅŸmacılarla devam eden bir sohbete katılmak 81'de geliyor. Deyimsel veya standart olmayan bir dilin okunması, yine C1 içinde 76'da görünür. Hepsi çok sofistike bir anlayış düzeyine katkıda bulunur.

Yine de jargon ve deyimler İngilizcebüyük parçalarıdır. Ayrıca sürekli deÄŸiÅŸiyorlar ve jargon yeni yenilikler, profesyonel disiplinler ve nesillerle deÄŸiÅŸiyor.Ìý

Bir deyim aşırı kullanıldığında, bir klişe haline gelir. Bazen deyimler, bağlamla ilgisiz oldukları için ağrılı bir başparmak gibi dışarı çıkar - ama her zaman değil.

Akıcı İngilizce konuÅŸmacılar bile bir deyimin bir deyim olduÄŸunu fark etmezler. "Seni yarın arayacağım" ifadesini alın.ÌýAkıcı İngilizce konuÅŸmacıların çoÄŸu bunu basit bir bildirim cümlesi olarak görür. Bu ifade, birisini ÅŸahsen "çağırma" veya dikkatini çekmek için adını çağırma fikrinden gelir, ancakÌýikinci bir dil İngilizce konuÅŸmacısı, artık bir telefon içerdiÄŸi ve uzun mesafelerde elde edilebileceÄŸi gerçeÄŸini hemen kavrayamayabilir.

İngilizce hem karmaşık hem de mecazi dil açısından zengindir; Bunu biliyoruz. Bu onun güzelliklerinden biri ve aynı zamanda onu öğrenmenin zorluğu. Fakat bu tür mecazi diller hangi noktada yanlış hale gelir?

gibi,Ìýikinci dil İngilizce konuÅŸanların sayısı artık küresel olarak akıcı İngilizce konuÅŸanlardan daha fazla, bu da dengenin devrildiÄŸi anlamına geliyor. Akıcı İngilizce konuÅŸanlar, ikinci dil İngilizce konuÅŸanlarla her zamankinden daha fazla iÅŸ yapıyor, onlardan öğreniyor ve etkileÅŸimde bulunuyor. Milyarlarca sterlinlik ticaret ve ülkelerin kaderleri bu yazılı ve sözlü konuÅŸmalara baÄŸlı olabilir; Bahisler yüksek.

İkinci dil İngilizce konuşanlar deyimleri ve jargonu zor bulurlar ve bu nedenle onlara çok daha az ihtiyaç duyarlar. Sözler sevimli, çekici ve eğlenceli olabilse de, bu dilsel araçlar doğaları gereği anlamı maskeler. Bu, bir konuşmadaki her katılımcı onları çözemediğinde dili daha az verimli hale getirir. Yapamayan insanların oranı artıyor, bu da önümüzdeki yıllarda neyin "doğru" olduğunu düşündüğünü etkileyebilir ve öğretilenler üzerinde etkileri olabilir.

I answered three of the most common questions in the first post of this series, and now it's time to look at another frequent query: how to use apostrophes.ÌýWhere do they go? When are they needed? And when should they be left out entirely?

    Apostrophes might be small but they can cause big confusion because they are used both to indicate posession and to contract words. But the good news is that there are clear, simple patterns to follow, which we'll explore, along with exceptions to watch out for.ÌýWhether you’re writing a report or just a text message, these tips will help you use apostrophes correctly and confidently.

    Five ways to apply startup thinking in your classroom

    By Nicole Kyriacou
    Okuma zamanı: 3 minutes

    Startups are generally considered to be new, technology-focused companies that are less than five years old. For the most part, they aim to disrupt industry with innovations, grow in terms of users and revenues and provide value to customers and shareholders.

    It may not appear that startups have much in common with English Language Teaching (ELT), but there is, in fact, plenty to learn from startups and the way they work.

    By understanding how startups think and looking at their best attributes, we can bring more creativity to our classrooms. Not only can we find new ways for our students to learn, collaborate and grow together, but we can also help our students develop much-needed leadership and critical thinking skills.

    What is startup thinking?

    At its core, startup thinking is about problem-solving and growth. User-focused and data-driven, startup teams theorize, research, plan and test their products on new markets. Their strength is in their agility, being able to "pivot" quickly: change products, services and technology based on feedback from their customers.

    They also operate on a number of key principles, all of which can be applied in the classroom:

    1. Be entrepreneurial

    Startups are entrepreneurial by definition. Their staff work in teams, but also have no problem going it alone, finding solutions and taking responsibility for new projects and initiatives. These are all excellent traits to encourage in the classroom as they will not only help your learners in an educational context, but in their professional lives too.

    By learning to be accountable to themselves, measuring their own progress and seeing their achievements, autonomous learners develop self-confidence and progress faster as a result.

    It’s therefore important to encourage students to take responsibility for their own learning. Rather than being solely reliant on their teacher, autonomous learners seek out ways to practice and improve their language skills in ways that appeal to them.

    To do this, brainstorm strategies with your students to help them find ways to use English outside the classroom. They could, for example, keep a journal in English, watch English language films and take notes, read short stories or news articles, or even set their technology and social media language settings to English.

    2. Collaborate and learn from each other

    Startups have a common goal: to establish a business model and achieve a product-market fit. This goal focuses people’s attention and develops rapport among team members. As an additional benefit of working together, startuppers learn their own strengths and weaknesses and begin to collaborate with team members with complementary skills.

    By learning about your students’ interests, objectives and needs, you can find inspiration to design relevant class projects. These give your students a common goal and the chance to collaborate effectively. What’s more, project work is rich in language learning opportunities and makes students accountable to one another. This in turn increases motivation and provides a genuine context for language learning.

    3. Reward effort

    Startups are not afraid to get things wrong. In fact, all entrepreneurs embrace mistakes, as they are part of coming to the right solution. As Thomas Edison once said "I have not failed 10,000 times – I’ve successfully found 10,000 ways that will not work." ÌýSome startups go as far as to reward and celebrate failure – saying that it’s a sign that a person is trying to succeed.

    Encourage students to see mistakes as learning opportunities. Creating a safe space in the classroom where everyone is treated with respect and mistakes are viewed as natural learning experiences. This will help your students learn the language at their own pace, without fear of ridicule.

    4. Foster a growth mindset

    Startups are famous for focusing on growth and believing in improving their products. They see both negative and positive feedback as opportunities to grow. By always seeking to optimize their products and services, they improve the user experience and earn loyalty.

    Similarly, it’s key to foster a growth mindset in your learners. ÌýA growth mindset perceives intelligence and ability as attributes to be developed, whereas a fixed mindset sees intelligence and ability as innate and unchanging.

    Students with a growth mindset will therefore believe they can improve, be more motivated and see more progress as a result.

    5. Mentor and support

    Startup founders mentor and support their team members when they face challenges, when they need to grow and when they are not reaching their potential. This increases the value of the workforce and enables them to be more productive.

    Teachers are often already naturals at this. We know how important it is to offer support to our students, especially when they are feeling frustrated or disappointed with their progress. With our encouragement and support, our students can achieve things they never thought possible. So perhaps, in this final point, startup leaders could learn a thing or two from us.
