Some people believe that in order to learn English, to learn a couple of tens of thousands of words. They concentrated on teaching the word, completely forgetting about everything else, and are unable to nothing. Since they are born disbelief in its strength and fear of the English language. This is one of the fallacies in the study of English. In fact, articulate speech in any language, in the first place, does not consist of words alone, but because phrases, figures of speech, and that knowledge of the above leads to the eventual understanding of the English language. Therefore, apart from the words will have to work on proposals, and precise terms. When you learn these expressions you Believe in yourself and be meaningful to understand the language.

Why language consists of expressions? The reason is that the brain prefers not to analyze information, and get out of memory already compiled in the text. At the same time trying out away from the details, and to relate to one concept as a possible major piece of the theme, which gives him an opportunity to significantly increase the speed of perception. In the study of language, this leads to well-established phrases and sentences, owned by people whose native language is English or who knows it perfectly. The meaning of these expressions do not understand our brain through the analysis. Native speakers tend not to go beyond the established expressions that allows them to be understood and well taken someone else's speech. Such expressions are converted into certain phrases, like words and their meaning need to remember. Where to take an expression to remember? Dictionaries do not contain these expressions similar words.

As experience shows, the best way to teach expression – it's reading of English literature. Textbook in this case worse. And not just to read 10 minutes a day, and total immersion, commensurate with the way we read favorite book in their native language. How many pages need to read to get results? I want to say, the more the better. Every man has his perception, his ability to the language. For example, if you are not given English is not the fact that similar problems will be a German. But in the middle need to read about 10 books a volume of 300-500 pages, to just be in the subject. Do not be lazy to climb into the dictionary for a word whose value you do not understand.
