Дополнение к идиомам и...

0 328

Мы завершили цикл статей/уроков по идиомам, но у нас осталось несколько дополнений, а помимо этого, мы хотим и дать ссылку на большой тренинг по идиомам, приобрести его можно сегодня по скидке.

Конечно же мы изучаем идиомы на примерах из фильмов и в рамках программы "Английский как родной", и некоторые из них совпадают и в тренинге и в программе... но между ними есть довольно большие отличия, и если вы хорошо знаете произношиение, грамматику и т.д., но у вас страдает именно образная речь - то вам нужен только отдельный тренинг "Важнейшие идиомы и устойчивые выражений английского языка. 4.0".

Study tips

Here are some practical study tips for remembering idioms.

Break the idiom down into parts

This should help you to learn and remember the form of the idiom.

Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check

Another way to learn idioms is to go through these five stages:

• Look at the idiom carefully.

• Say the idiom aloud to yourself, listening to how it sounds.

• Cover the idiom and try to remember what it looks like.

• Write the idiom.

• Check what you have written to see if you got it right.

Pictures

Many idioms are based on images, and having a picture in your memory can help you to remember the idiom. You could draw pictures in your notebook to help you remember the image that the idiom creates. The illustrations that appear in this book will help you, too.

Stories

When you watch a film orTV programme in English, listen for idioms and try to remember them in that context. For example, if a character in a film says 'You're pulling my leg!' try to remember the situation with that idiom. What was the joke? Was it really a joke? Did the character ever believe what they'd been told?

The story:

• helps you to understand how the idiom is used

• shows you the kind of people who use the idiom: their relationships how they feel when they use it

• shows you that the situation is a good time to use that idiom, so that you will be able to use it when you are in a similar situation

• allows you to keep a mental picture that will help you remember the expression.

Look and listen

Look and listen for the idioms that you have seen or heard before. When you read or hear one, spend a moment checking that you understand how it is being used in this new context.

Try to carry a notebook with you (a good idea for learning all new vocabulary) and make a note of the idiom and the context that you heard or read it in. If you are reading a text and it's appropriate, you could underline any idioms that appear in the text and look these up in a dictionary later.

Organizing your notebook

The idioms presented in this book have been grouped in topics to make them easier to remember and to help you use and understand them in everyday situations. As mentioned above, you can also organize your notebook according to the origin of the meaning of the idiom. So you could group idioms that you come across under the following headings:

• Shared physical experience

• Specific areas of experience

• Historical/Cultural context

• Simile

• Sound patterns

Practise and revision

Find opportunities to practise whenever you can, and make an effort to use the idioms you've been studying.

You have to be patient while learning idioms. You can't use them anywhere and in any sentence. If you use them incorrectly, idioms can sound funny, so trying them and asking questions can be helpful. Develop a habit of making sentences including idioms and trying them out. That will help you to remember them properly.

Research tells us that actively using and revising new vocabulary helps you to store the information in

your long-term memory. Students who learn best:

• find opportunities to try out new words in real-life communication - this is likely to be more effective than 'safer' contexts such as the classroom or private study

• ask questions to check what they know about words

• test themselves

• revise regularly -'little and often'is better than occasional, large-scale revision.
