Hi,

What do you think of sticking to basic rules? For example, have you heard that in English we start each sentence with a capital letter and that the personal pronoun 'I' is always capitalized? Also, we separate each sentence with a space.

Another question I'd like to ask you is how much time you spend on listening to English media every day?

Practice only can get you to the peak of the performance...

Try your best ...

I don't think that practice alone will do the trick. If you ignore basic rules right from the start you can practice until the cows come home -- you will never reach 'the peak of your performance'.

Hi Torsten...

Good, you have responded immediately...When I said ' practice ' I mean the legible and legitimate practice only...

If anyone practice anything without strictly following the fundamental rules for that particular faculty...then surely he will not reach to the '' peak of the performance..''

thanks for your masterly suggestion..
