[QUOTE="ShreddeR, post: 20328880, member: 513166"] [SIZE="3"][INDENT][INDENT][COLOR="DarkOrchid"]Tip 7: How To Use the 80/20 Principle[/COLOR] Here we want to talk about the good news and the bad news of speaking English FAST. The bad news: Educated native speakers know more than 50,000 English words! Wow, that's a lot of vocabulary. Plus, educated native speakers are masters of spoken English grammar. That big grammar book you studied in the past-- we know all of it-- and we never have to think about it. All those words and rules may make English seem difficult. In fact, many students think, "English is so difficult, I will never speak it fast". But here's the good news: Educated native speakers use only the same 3000 words in normal conversations! That's not so bad :) To speak excellent English, you don't need to know 50,000 words and you certainly don't need to study hundreds of grammar rules. This is called the 80/20 principle. It means that 80% of success comes from 20% of the effort. In other words, if you study intelligently, you will focus on the 20% of English that we use everyday. You will learn this English very well. You will learn it very deeply-- so you use it instantly-- super fast. [COLOR="Red"]** Tip 7: How To Use the 80/20 Principle[/COLOR] Its easy to use this idea-- simply focus on "high frequency" words, phrases, and grammar. You need to learn the words, phrases, and grammar that English speakers use every day. You need to MASTER them-- learn them very deeply, so you can use them super-fast, without thinking. If you master that, the other 80% will be easy. Don't waste time trying to learn big word lists. Don't waste time studying big grammar books. Learn the 3000 most common words, the 100 most common idioms, and the most common English phrases (totally learn them-- so you understand and use them automatically). Do this, and you will be amazed-- your speaking and listening will improve very FAST. You will speak easily to native speakers. [/INDENT][/INDENT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
