제 짧은 경험으로 생각해보자면 외국어(영어)를 공부하는 왕도는 없습니다. 하지만 목표와 방향은 잡고 공부해야합니다. 우선 "당신은 영어를 왜 공부합니까?" 무슨 공부든 목적이 있어야 합니다. 취업할때 스펙이 필요합니까? 그럼 토익책 사고, 토익강의 들으면서 토익공부하시면 됩니다. 이 글을 읽으실 필요는 없습니다.
아래글은 외국어를 공부하고자, 언어를 마스터 하고자 하는 사람에게 필요한 글입니다. 그리고 언어공부중 얻은 짧은 팁이라고 생각하시면 맘이 편하겠군요.
오랜만에 좋은글을 보게 되서 스크랩..ㅋㅋ 길지만 외국어 학습자라면 다 읽어보시길...
I’m now in the UK to learn English, more precisely, to improve my English. Even though I started learning English when I was at Primary school, for more than 10 years, I don’t think my English is good enough. I still have problems to express my opinion, and it’s not a matter of vocabulary.
The most serious problem is that I still hesitate before I say something. I have to think of what I’m going to speak and quite often, my brain tries to translate my thoughts which are Korean into English. That makes me always hesitate and not be able to speak naturally and automatically.
Of course, some people would argue that it’s absolutely natural because English is not my mother tongue. Yes, I used to think like this. However obviously there are many people out there who can learn languages much quicker than others or at least are good at English as their second language. I’ve heard of a linguist who was be able to speak more than 15 languages even though he never went abroad for his whole life. Is this ‘Phenomenon’ utterly because of their talent and gift?
No, it’s not true. Because we all know children can learn language amazingly faster than adults and when a family moves to a foreign country for some reason, usually their children would be able to speak a foreign language in a few years, whereas their parents wouldn’t.
Many linguists used to think that children had special talent to learn language effectively, which disappeared when they grew up. But some recent researchers say that no one loses this ability but we just forget how to use it.
Yes, it’s sad but true. We’ve forgotten how long it took that we were able to say our first word (usually, ‘mom’) when we were babies. Before a baby starts speaking, they wait. This silence period is one of the most important factors of learning a language.
There is research about a 29-year-old Mexican man living in the United States for 12 years. He’s a native Spanish speaker and he can speak English well, but he says that he can speak Hebrew better. He’s been working at a Hebrew restaurant whose owner, staff and most customers are Israelis, since he arrived in America.
A researcher starts looking into how he learnt Hebrew. Certainly, he’s never gone to any Hebrew language school and studied Hebrew. But his Hebrew is excellent. The researcher recorded when he was talking to his colleagues about what they did yesterday for 5 minutes and let other 5 native Hebrew speakers hear his conversation. Surprisingly, most of them thought that this guy must’ve lived in Israel for a long time. How was it possible? This guy could speak excellent Hebrew after first 3 years. IN JUST 3 YEARS!!!
Here are the secrets how he did this great achievement. First, he focused on understandable input, in other words, he focused on listening to Hebrew he could understand. In the beginning, maybe that was just one or two words, such as ‘yes, no, here, thanks, etc.’, and then getting more and more complicated. Anyway he didn’t study textbooks and memorise grammar rules or something but he focused on listening everyday to things he could understand a little bit.
Secondly, he didn’t worry about speaking, he was just listening, listening and listening for 2,3 years before he tried to speak a lot. So he had a long silent period focused on listening.
At last, he was a part of a social club. In this case, the restaurant and the owners, staff, and customers of the restaurant.
This silence period is extremely important for learning language. This also can explain that why Dutch people are so good at English. They have been exposed to English circumstance, usually by watching TV since they were young.
For learning language, ‘input’ represents listening and reading while ‘output’ represents speaking and writing. Many people think if we want to improve our speaking, we have to keep speaking and make themselves obsessed with speaking practice. But we can’t speak well if we aren’t ready to speak well. Unfortunately, under traditional language learning circumstances, we are forced to speak and study grammar rules, using textbooks.
There are many researches show this traditional learning methods are totally waste of time and money. All the grammar rules just make us think ABOUT English and prevent us from speaking naturally. As far as I concerned, I’ve never studied Korean grammar rules thoroughly like studying English grammar. But I’m not worried about speaking grammatically correct Korean and I don’t think about grammars before I say. This is because when I learnt Korean I met all three factors above unconsciously.
What’s more there is another interesting research on ‘Error correction’ used at every language schools all the time. We would seem to believe that this error correction is very important to improve our language abilities.
Well, the researchers of this research separated students into two groups. The students of the first group were corrected their errors instantly whereas the other were never done this. The research lasted for a year and the results showed there were no differences between those two groups. They were still making exactly the same mistakes. But the students who were corrected their mistakes tended to speak much more slowly and not to like learning English because they were continually frustrated by teachers with error correction.
Then, what is the best way of learning a language?
So, point the No.1, Understandable input. You must listen, listen, listen and listen more. It is the number 1 activity you must do to improve your English, especially your spoken English. If you want to improve your spoken grammar, you need to listen a lot. If you want to improve your vocabulary that you use when speaking, you must listen a lot. If you want to improve your pronunciation, you must listen a lot. Listening is the number one activity for learning or improving a language. That’s why so many people have problems with English with other languages, because they learn by reading first and memorizing grammar rules first and they never do very much listening. Therefore, when they speak, their speaking is bad and they don’t understand native speakers much. So you must listen to things that you can understand. Listening to a film will not help you if the film is too difficult because you can’t understand it.
The number two activity, understandable input is reading. Reading is also very important and it especially helps your vocabulary. A lot of reading will help your writing as well. But you should not need a dictionary when you read something. If you want to read more difficult things you should read things that are very short. These are two main activities for learning and improving your English.
Second, a long silent period. If you are a beginner of the language, it’s great to have a long long silent period. Most people are probably speaking English already so they don’t need this period, but you should still focus more on listening than speaking.
Finally, being a part of a social club. You have to belong to a group that uses the target language so that you can be connected with the language, people, and culture. Maybe you need to join this kind of social group.
I’m leaving for Korea in a few months but I’m happy that at least I found these methods before leaving. Now I’m working on it. I’m actually starting from scratch.
Language learning is definitely a long race and unfortunately, I was suffering from useless methods for so many years. Now I really need to start afresh and I hope in a few years, my English will be much better enough to speak native speakers, think IN English and speak and understand English naturally and automatically.
Also I can apply this method to learning other languages. After English, I’m going to learn another language, maybe Japanese, Chinese or Spanish or something. Then I’d not be frustrated by learning a language and be able to truly enjoy it!!
Officially, education psychologists conclude that learning foreign language requires a significant amount of memorization. They clearly suggest that learners of a second language should take at least six months to memorize sentence used in everyday English. They carefully support the the idea that grammar within the sentences is naturally acquired during this intensive memorization. In the process of memorizing sentence, acquistion of the grammar will conveniently and easily take place. As a result, the learners of the second language will be able to create a new sentence that they have never made before. With the accumulated knowledge of the grammar acquired by the act of memorization absolutely make the learners ease to further study.
공식적으로, 교육심리학자들은 외국어를 배우는데에는 상당양의 암기를 요한다고 결론지었습니다. 제 2 외국어 학습자는 최소한 6개월동안 실생활에 사용되는 문장을 매일같이 암기해야한다고 분명히 말합니다. 문장안에 문법은 집중적인 암기를 하는 동안 자연스레 습득된다고 조심스례 언급합니다. 문장을 암기하는 과정에서, 문법습득이 쉽고 편하게 이루어질것입니다. 결과적으로, 제 2 외국어 학습자는 암기하지 않은 새로운 문장을 만들 수 있게 됩니다. 암기를 통해 얻은 문법 지식이 쌓이면서 절대적으로 외국어 공부를 보다 쉽게 만듭니다.

Difference of Men & Women
Men and women are always biologically different from each other in many ways. One of the most obvious differences between men and women is that men are usually larger in stature than women and have more body hair. Men are considered to be more extroverted, aggressive, physically active and sexually oriented than women. Women, on the other hand, are stereopically seen as high maintenance, more sensitive, interactive, and sensual. Although many of these stereotypes hold true for people everywhere, they do not always account for individual differences.
남녀는 언제나 서로 다양한 방법으로 생물학적으로 많은 차이를 보입니다. 한가지 분명한 차이는 남자는 보통 여자보다 크고 더 많은 양의 털이 있다는 것입니다. 남자는 여자보다 더 외향적이고, 공격적이며, 육체적으로 활동적이고 성적인 성향이 강하다고 여겨집니다. 다른 한편으로 여자는, 고정관념상 더 요구사항이 많고, 민감하며, 상호관계적이면서 감각적입니다. 어디곳에 사는 사람이건 이런 많은 선입견이 사실이긴 하지만, 그것이 언제나 개인적인 차이를 고려하는 것은 아닙니다.

Children watching TV on regular base before the age of two may demonstrate the degradation of the intellectual development in thier later years. Children under the age of two should daily practice one of their basic insincts, watching and touching objects as much as posible just to learn the place where they are surrounded with. Simply speaking, they need to see a wide variety of things around them. TV makes the children focus on the screen for minutes and hours, and ultimately limit their view in the screen. Young children sitting in front of the screen long and much develp this limited view not only toward the screen but also the world outside.
TV의 악 영향
정기적으로 TV를 시청한 두살 이전의 아이들은 성장후에 지적 발달저하를 보일 지도 모름니다. 두살 이전의 아이들은 그들 주변에 대해 배우기 위해서, 가능한 많은 주변사물을 보거나 만지면서 매일 그들자신의 본능적 감각을 잘 익혀야 한다. 짧게 말하자면, 주변을 폭넓게 보는 것이 필요하다. TV는 아이들을 몇분, 몇시간 동안 화면에 집중하게 만든다. 그리고 궁극적으로 아이들의 시야는 제한하게 만든다. 어린 아이들은 오랜동안 TV화면 앞에 앉아 제한된 시야는 키우고, 뿐만아니라 세상에 대한 시야도 쫍히고 있다.

IPAD 국내 출시?
Apple의 아이패드 국내 출시가 많은 사람들의 관심을 받고 있다.
현재 우리나라가 제 2차 판매국에서 제외된 후 많은 '루머' 들이 있다.
아이폰을 들여온 KT에서 이번에도 아이패드를 들여와 판매하게 될 것이라는 말이 아무래도 가장 유력하다.
유독 우리나라만 뭔 '협상'이란 것이 오래 걸리고 복잡한지, 참 그 만큼 국내산업을 보호한다는 말이지만 한편으로 그렇게 자신이 없을까 하는 생각이다.
삼성, LG 등등 국내 기업이 여러모로 어려움에 처해있는데 그것은 지극히 그들이 취한 소비자에 대한 대가이다. 그저 스펙만 올려 상품을 생산해 내 '반복적인 눈속임 판매'를 하고 있다는 걸 이제 알만한 사람은 다 안다. 그런데 아직까지도 그 기기의 스펙만을 믿고 소비자가 진정 뭘 원하는지 왜 APPLE에 열광하는지를 아직도 모르고 자신들에게 위기를 가져다준 아이폰, 그리고 아이폰을 들여온 KT를 '주적'으로 선언하고 전쟁을 시작한다.
만약 아이패드를 KT에서 들여온다면 일반 Wifi제품은들어오지 않을 꺼라고 하던데, 정말이지, 짜증난다. 이번에도 또 2년 약정을 걸어버릴것인가?;;; 왜 소비자의 선택을 억지로 오므리려하는가. 그저 노예계약으로 말이다. 뭐 이것도 비지니스니까.......
"This is Business"라고 말하면 할 말은 없다. 많이 팔면 장땡이라고 생각한다면 말이다. SAMSUNG이든 LG든 KT든, 상품은 고만팔고 서비스를 팔았으면 좋겠다.
하루빨리 '아이패드'가 들어오길 기대한다. Apple도 소비자를 위한 회사라고 하기는 어렵지만, 그래도 제품자체는 소비자를 속이지 않더라.

2002년, 케이티가 열살 때 차에 치는 사고가 있었다. 이 치명적인 사고는 케이티의 엄마에게 큰 슬픔을 남겼다. 그리고 머지않아 영국사회에게도 큰 충격을 주었다. 그녀의 엄마가 이렇게 말했기 때문이다. ' 우리 아이를 복제할꺼에요' 그리고 곧 케이티는 복제되었다. 엄마의 동의로 Dr. Zavos가 케이티의 혈액에서 혈구를 추출했다. 그 의사는 케이티의 배아세포를 복제해서 대리모에 이식했다. 이 인간복제는 배아줄기세포에 관해 대중적으로 많은 찬반양론을 일르켰다. Dr. Zavos는 불치병에 걸린 사람들의 요구 때문에 그의 연구를 계속해야 한다고 말했다. 종교인, 학자, 정치가들이 던지는 윤리적인 질문에 적절히 대답하기 위하여 케이티를 복제하는 이 전 과정이 문서화되었다. 한편, 논쟁의 중심속에, 케이티는 2009년 태어날 예정입니다.
이건 실화인데, 대충 관련기사를 찾아보았는데 '복제인간 탄생 논쟁'이란 기사만 뜨고 실제로 태어났는지 여부는 찾지 못했다.
