Reading and its Relevance in Learning a New Language



No language can be fully understood or properly learnt unless  one can read it  effectively, pronounce  words correctly and write it well.

How to enhance the process of learning a language?

It is  really simple. The answer to this question is- READ.

It is extremely important that a person who is engaging himself / herself in learning a new language reads texts in that language. It increases his/her vocabulary and helps  understand the usage of grammar pertaining to each language.

It helps more if one reads a story they’ve read before in a language they know in the language they’re pursuing. For example- if you are learning Spanish, it will help if you try looking up a simple story like, Little Red Riding Hood in Spanish, and go through the story. It gives you an idea of sentence formation, usage of words and grammatical knowledge of the language.

Now a days it is simpler still to punch in a topic you would like to read about, and come across blogs which can be read. This, however, requires discretion of websites one looks up, but blogs can turn out to be a good source of reading for people.

The gist of the matter is that reading is a crucial step in the process of learning a language well.
So, read up!
