Reading against writing #1 (permalink) Fri Feb 20, 2009 12:47 pm   Reading against writing
 

Hi all
I'm really interesting in learning english as well improve my skills, Sometimes I come to understand everything I read or I listen, I mean that I understand the meaning of everything come across my hands, but the problem is when I want to write something I feel all the words that I have read or listened had evaporated from the mind Sad

Has anyone got some solution for this problem..??

Thanks in advance.

Hey,

I think this is because your passive vocabulary far exceeds your active one. And this is actually the case with most, if not all, people. The trick is to write in a coherent and understandable fashion; after all, we are not all Shakespeare.

Hi Aryam...

First: Read news papers and good magazines to collect more and more vocabulary...

Second: Listen to many live/recorded messages and news bulletins to gather the knowledge of sentence structure...

Third: Try to make some paragraphs of your own in various topics using your vocabulary sparingly...

Fourth: Try to speak or chat with known friends at your ease and see your progress both in writing and talking...

Step by step you will gain gradually the tips and tricks in using the language...

Best wishes...

...
