LEARN ENGLISH 5
Khaliqur Rahman
In the earlier lessons we’ve seen that quite a few rules of English grammar depend on the Sounds of English (44) rather than on Letters. We must therefore learn the Sounds of English and learn to see them and the Letters of English in separate compartments.
Unfortunately, teaching of English in India generally starts with the letters. This has a very strong negative influence on most of us. In trying to pronounce an English word we are most often guided by its spel
He said: Lo, the sky is somber, and frowned.
I said: Smile just the same! Enough frowns in the sky
He said: Youth has left me and fled; I said: Smile!
Sorrow will never bring back your vanished youth
He said: The one whose love was my heaven,
Has tormented my soul
And turned my love into an inferno
She has betrayed my affection,
After I made my heart her sole possession.
So how can I smile
I said: Smile and enjoy yourself;
If you dwell on the hurt she dealt you, you will spend
The rest of your days i
Last week one of my friends give me a special gift, he went to Israel and stayed there for a month, he just back at home last week and give me a red thread , while he was tying the red thread in my left hand, he told me a story about it “I took this red thread from the Rachel’s Tomb , you have to ask for seven wishes while I do seven knots” – he said.

I have a dream -- to migrate to Australia with my family. Admittedly, it's not easy for me, because of my age and career.
Although there must be a large number of obstacles before me, I determine to have a try. That's the reason that I get down to studying English now. After thoroughly studying the requirements of skilled migration to Australia, I got to know that I must get at least 7 on each of the 4 components of IELTS at first. I have to acknowledge that it is nearly a impossible task for me
Wow! Today is Friendship day!!
To be honest, I never celebrate it. I did not even know we have this day. I read a blog about friendship day written by Rajesh. After reading that blog and a comment from Junko, that reminded me to a stupid mistake I have made which I could not forget hehe. It happened when I was in my first year at junior high school, here goes the story...
I like English so much since I was a kid. I always watched Sesame Street and took notes for every new word they gave in the v
Couples and couples and couples all over the world.
While I am the very single one .
Alone. Never lonely, however.
It’s just one of the 365 days in the year, nothing special.
When you think you should do something romantic with the one in this day, while, congratulations, you are still someone believes fairy tale. Nothing bad, and even much better than those who are so worldly-wise. With a heart which keeps glad to believe, to trust, to love, and to be enthusiastic
Hi! How are you? The end of summer is nearer and nearer. I am very tired last week. I started write my course work in macroeconomics and that’s why I spend last week at the library. I don’t know, what I thought than chosen topic, but I choose the most boring topic on which little of any information. And now I don’t know what write. “The economic security of Ukraine” oh…. I'll be finishing the course work until September. And how are you spend last month of summer???

This time I didn't have enough time to practice the song, "Our last summer" suggested by ABRIL, my dear friend.But, I like to take part in the contest since I had so much fun singing Lilly and helped me so much to learn about intonation in English. So, I really apologize for not "BEING GOOD ENOUGH" and hope you can bear my singing!
Here is my recording:

I'm certain that there are a lot of poor children who want to learn but they couldn't attend school because:
1. They prefer to work in order to sustain or provide a living for their family.
2. Because of poverty, many women and children are become victims of sexual exploitation and prostitution.
3. Those young children could be the next generation of scientists, educators, or lawyers but have limited access of support because they are living in far away islands and have no means to reach them.

LEARN ENGLISH – 4
Khaliqur Rahman
The Learners in general are not familiar with the Sounds of English as in most schools in India, they start with the Alphabet. We, therefore, introduce the sounds with the help of audios and now with the British Council phonemic chart and ask the Learners to keep learning them with patience and practice.
It is easier for them to discover that an goes with a vowel sound and a with a consonant sound. There are no exceptions to this rule anymore! Moreover, they discov
Hi,
I just remembered one of my topic with my private tutor. I want to share it with you and hope you could be able to share your idea about the topic.
Topic: " If you were given a chance to go back to your past, What age would you like to revisit again? Why?
Most of them answered, they wanted to revisit the time that they were in their high school life, they said, it is the most funny and exciting year in everyone's life. However, I agree with them, but as for me, I would like to revisit again
