Can I learn a foreign language without perfection in
English?
Can I learn a foreign language without perfection in English?
“You don’t know English properly learn English first, don’t go for foreign languages” this is the general advice a student gets if he thinks of learning a foreign language. My experience shows clearly that people can be taught German, French, Spanish or Italian more quickly than English. Students without English fluency can still pick up a foreign language relatively quickly.
Me with French , German and English Students on Doordarshan |
The struggle to acquire fluency is more in English. In fact the students of English Language do the conversations as many as 15 times to get it right. But I have not struggled like this for French and German. It is because in India English has been taught wrongly. The wrong words, phrases and prepositions cannot be easily eliminated from the mind. But with a simple effort the student can learn a Foreign language - French, German, Spanish or Italian.
GERMAN
German is the second simplest language in the world after English.
In terms of verb conjugation, sentence construction and vocabulary German
offers easiness to people who have touch with English. German is a
part of my everyday life. We also speak German at home along with English and
French. My students speak German rather easily. I uploaded 80 videos inYou can see my students speaking German easily and coolly. Just type "German Vijayawada" in youtube.
The following are German words that are similar to English
HOTEL, TELEFONE, MANAGER, TABLET, MANGO, MALARIA , OK, SUPER, INTELLIGENT, ILLEGAL, ABNORMAL, OPTIONAL, OPTIMAL , BLIND, VERBAL, WILD, DIGITAL, STUDENT, RATIONAL , INTERNATIONAL, NATIONAL, IDEAL and many more
.

ROMANIAN
Romanian, a Latin Romance derivative with heavy Slavic overtones, is labeled as one of the simplest. if you know french or spanish or Italiain you can follow Romanian. Pronunciation is very easy when compared to French, German, Italian. Romanian vocabulary is close to English
spinac, stomac, sirop, voleibal, rom,num, schi (sky) sac (sack), sos (sauce), totul (total) trafic, larg (large) lichior, mecanic, elicopter (helicopter) echipament (equipment) parc (park) cec.
తెలుగులో ఉన్నట్లుగానే నువ్వు అనే పద ప్రయోగం ఇంగ్లిష్ లో తప్ప అన్ని యూరోపియన్ భాషలలో కనబడుతుంది
There is informal YOU (నువ్వు) in most of the European languages:
French - Tu ; German -Du ; Italian - Tu ; Spanish - Tú ; Romanian - Tu.
Romanian grammar is close to Italian grammar. Adjectives including colors have gender and plural. just as "MY" takes three forms in Italian MY in Romanian also takes three forms.
Italian: mio padre ( my father) mia madre.( my mother) i miei genitori ( my parents)
Romanian: el este tatăl meu. ea este mama mea. ei sunt prietenii mei.
English : He is my father. she is my mother. They are my friends
Just like French and Italian Romanian has four types of verbs.
Type 1 — verb infinitive ending in -a
Type 2 — verb infinitive ending in -ea
Type 3 — verb infinitive ending in -e
Type 4 — verb infinitive ending in -i or -î
Example Romanian Verb conjugation: Joca = to play
eu joc. tu joci. el joacă. noi jucăm. voi jucaţi. ei joacă.

FRENCH
My friend from Haute Normandie, France |
Hailing from the Romance family, French loaned so many words to English. So ,English speakers won't struggle much to learn French. French is a liquid
language. It is a gender specific language. The structure resembles most of the
Indian languages such as Telugu. Tamil Hindi and Malayalam. French vocabulary is easy
to remember. because hundreds of
French words very close to English words.
The following are French words similar to English.
BUS, TRAIN, RESERVATION, ORGANIZATION, EDUCATION, ILLUSION, POLLUTION, ASSOCIATION, INDEPENDENCE, RELATIONS, CONFUSION, GOUVERNEMENT, DOCUMENT, AGENT, MINISTRE, TÉLÉVISION, POSSIBLE, COMFORTABLE, TENNIS, TABLE, PORT, SIGNAL, SIGNATURE, RESERVOIR, RESTAURANT
SPANISH
Spanish is a beautiful language with over 500 million speakers worldwide. It is one of the easy languages for speakers of English to learn, as both languages have shared Latin roots. Spanish R is easier than English R for the Asians. Spanish pronunciation is easier than English pronunciation. Of course, gender and verb conjugation in Spanish are a little bit difficult. Hundreds of Spanish and English verbs are similar.
The Spanish numbers " Uno, Dos, Tres.." and speech are real fun.
Italian, French, Romanian, and Spanish aren't the same thing, but knowing one language gives the idea of the basics of the other language. A insignificant chunk of English vocab comes directly from Italian and Latin Romance roots, making it an easy enough start for anyone looking to pick up a second language. Telugu is called Italian of the east. All words in Telugu and Italian end with vowels .Once you learn Italian it is easy to make friends with Italians. when you love their language they love you. It is a common human psychology.
DUTCH
Seeing as how Dutch comes from a West Germanic lineage, it makes perfect sense that native English speakers would take to the language pretty swiftly. In fact, over time it has started absorbing more and more vocabulary words from English, so the two already resemble one another somewhat.
NORWEGIAN
As with Swedish, this Scandinavian tongue started out as a Germanic. it's considered an ideal second language for native English speakers. Many of its words are actually borrowed from English, though the grammar structure hews more closely to German and Old Norse.
PORTUGUESE
My friends in Portuguese class in Goa |
Being a Romance language Portuguese has inevitable overlaps with
French, Spanish, Italian, and Romanian, though it has more vowel sounds than
all of these. Recently Portuguese has absorbed considerable English
vocabulary, though it borrowed liberally from Romance languages. My friend Mr. Sayaji is a professional in Portuguese. it is easy to learn the language. He says that the opportunities are exciting. He goes abroad with his clients interprets and helps them communicate in business negotiations. I need for interpreters is high as the business increases. So if you want to learn a foreign language, think of Portuguese.
SWEDISH
Another blend of Germanic and Norse, Swedish
holds more in common with Dutch and Norwegian than with English. Because of its
complex vocabulary and grammatical structure, those for whom English is the
primary language might stumble a bit at first. Many English words have warmed
their way into the Swedish lexicon. I feel that English speakers will certainly
find these languages easy to remember. with their similarities with English
vocabulary the vocabulary will magnetize the learners and hypnotize the listeners with sweet sounds .
