Hello and Welcome today we are going to learn how to improve our English speaking ability,
and below is list of 7 tips that will help you to do so .

Instructions

 

1. • 1
     Learn the rules of English grammar, including rules for word order, sentence structure, parts of speech, verb conjugation and spelling. Knowing these rules will make it easier for you to form intelligible sentences in English.
   • 2
     Take a course in English language through a school or community organization. There are English as a Second Language (ESL) courses available through a variety of groups; some communities even have literacy volunteers to help ESL strengthen their communication skills.
   • 
     
   • 3
     Listen to native English speakers for cues about proper pronunciation, sentence formation, slang expressions and variations in speaking etiquette. Linguists will tell you that the rules for proper speech lie with the native speaker, so you are likely to learn more by observing others than to follow the strict guidelines of a textbook.
   • 4
     Immerse yourself in the language by surrounding yourself with native speakers and forcing yourself to speak English as much as possible. Don't worry about making mistakes in front of native speakers because your mistakes will only improve your speaking skills in the long run.
   • 5
     Watch television shows, listen to radio and read books in English to learn more about how native speakers use and pronounce words. The more you hear the language, the better you will be able to use it.
   • 6
     Watch yourself in a mirror as you practice speaking English, and observe the shape of your mouth with each sound and word you produce. You may find that your difficulties with pronunciation are a result of the ways in which you open your mouth and place your tongue.
   • 7
     Keep a translation dictionary with you so that you can translate unfamiliar words and then practice using them in a sentence. The best way to enlarge your vocabulary is to make a conscious effort of learning and practicing new words.

What is a sentence?

Usually think about a sentence as it's  skeleton, the skeleton has various bones and these bones are put together to form different parts of the body. So sentences also are formed by words, the words are the bones and they are put together in different ways to form sentences.

1-Simple Sentences

A simple sentence contains a single subject and predicate. It describes only one thing, idea or question, and has only one verb - it contains only an independent (main) clause.

Any independent clause can stand alone as a sentence. It has a subject and a verb and expresses a complete thought.

For Instance:

Kamal reads.

Even the addition of adjectives, adverbs, and prepositional phrases to a simple sentence does not change it into a complex sentence.

For example:

• The whit Dog with the red collar always bark.

Even if you join several nouns with a conjunction, or several verbs with a conjunction, it remains a simple sentence.

For example:

• The dog barked and growled loudly.

2- Compound Sentences

Compound sentences are made up of two or more simple sentences combined using a conjunction such as and, ororbut. They are made up of more than one independent clause joined together with a co-ordinating conjunction.

For example:

"The sun was setting in the west and the moon was just rising."

Each clause can stand alone as a sentence.

For example:

"The sun was setting in the west. The moon was just rising."

Every clause is like a sentence with a subject and a verb. A coordinating conjunction goes in the middle of the sentence, it is the word that joins the two clauses together, the most common are (and, or, but)

For example:

·         I walked to the market, but my friend drove.

·         I might watch the tv, or I might go to my friends house.

·         My father enjoyed the meal, but hedidn't like the meat.

3- Complex Sentences

Complex sentences describe more than one thing or idea and have more than one verb in them. They are made up of more than one clause, an independent clause (that can stand by itself) and a dependent (subordinate) clause (which cannot stand by itself).

For example:

"My mother likes cat that eat fish."

Dependent clauses can be nominal, adverbial or adjectival.
