How do you do ?

if you want to improve your writing skill take grammar

Nouns and verbs + (s) or (es)

the ending is( es) when the word end s in (S) (ss) (sh) (ch) (x)

(s) like bus we will add (es) buses

(ss) like miss we will add (es) misses

(sh) like wash we will add ( es) washes

(ch) like search we will add (es) like searches

(x) like box we will add (es) like boxes

******************************************************

words ending in (y ) like baby

if a word ends in a consonant +(y)
y changes to (ie) before the ending -s

like baby we will delay (y) and add ies babies

I like learning English when it was intruduced to me first. I want to speak a perfect English. But i find it was difficult. Because i practise not as much as i can.I can frightened when i communicae with others. How can i do?I NEED your advice.

Dear friends,

In my opinion, all skills in learning English have the mutual relation.

If u wanna be a perfect English speaker, u should also give time for listening. When u listen to native speakers say, u naturally want to imitate them. The more u listen, the better and more correct ur sentence stress and pronunciation u have. Then u have to practise speaking. If u feel shy, speak to urself with a mirror. But i think u should join an English speaking club/class. Then maybe u will discover that u r better than u think and it will give u more self-confidence. One way of practising speaking tip that i got from my Australian teacher is using a cassette or recorder, which can record ur speaking. Then Prepare a speech and say it as if u were standing in front of audience.

If u want to write better, first u need to read, as much as possible, to catch and absorb the English/American thinking in articles. Then join Talking Point, the forums here in this site is a good place 4 u to write out ur thoughts.

Best wishes all
