2395. Listening, listening, listening, for speaking

Acquiring a language, English in our case. 

I have seen in my classes how learning and acquiring were interwoven. 

My adult students were acquiring English from my speaking and their classmates’. 

You’ve got to listen massively before speaking, and quite more a lot for speaking well. 

This doesn’t mean you cannot be capable of speaking until having listened to loads of chances. 

Often we can't be aware that we’re acquiring the language. It has something of naturalistic matter. / Photo from: trititiou weekly com
