Dear fellow learners you are all welcome to the group Think in English Talk in English. The purpose of this group is to encourage all of you to get a fluency and commanding power in English. A non-native English speaker has a tendency that he or she normally thinks in their own Language and then translates into English. It is a wrong method and it takes double duration rather than the original duration of Think and Talk in English. Here arises a problem that they have lack of spontaneity in English speaking and they stumble down due to grammar conscious on the construction of a sentence. To overcome this oral blockade one must practice to think only in English and talk with this same Language. Best wishes

  • It seems to me it's impossible to think in a foreign language intentionally so to speak; that is, to not translate in mind from one language to the other when we try to understand others or express ourselves. It comes best with a big amount of practice in the normal course of things. I doubt that special efforts in this direction can be more efficacious than the normal practice, namely speaking, writing, reading, listening. Only having a rich vocabulary and a very good knowledge of grammar one can begin to understand and express things directly, without the preliminary translation in mind, at first in simple cases but with time and practice in more and more complicated ones.
    Conclusion: to formulate the goal as thinking in English is misleading since it happens by itself as a result of acquiring fluency, not the other way round. I would put it differently: if you want to think in English like native speakers do, make your English as perfect as theirs :)

Can you Speak English without Thinking...

I introduce a new language by listening and all lessons consist of speaking and listening only. I teach grammar simply through situations with no reference to grammar rules at all.Thinking in a foreign language from an early stage helps students gain a level of fluency making very few errors in communication.I often find myself thinking in Polish and English, flying…
