是不是只有外國(guó)人聊天才能說(shuō)一口地道的英語(yǔ)呢 國(guó)內(nèi)英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)真的練不好口語(yǔ)嗎？

在學(xué)英語(yǔ)的時(shí)候，你是不是經(jīng)常會(huì)被告知要這樣做：

想學(xué)好英語(yǔ)(尤其是口語(yǔ))，你就一定要多和native English speakers(英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)的人) 溝通。

這個(gè)觀點(diǎn)受到了很多英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者的追捧，甚至都要趕超“出國(guó)留學(xué)”的觀念了!

那么這個(gè)觀點(diǎn)正確嗎?和什么樣的native speakers交流，才能提高英語(yǔ)?今天，小編就來(lái)和你好好說(shuō)說(shuō)。

1.和native speakers交流，對(duì)學(xué)英語(yǔ)有幫助?

Why do we think this is true? Well, it seems logical.Many believe that the language belongs to the native speakers, so if we want to speak it ‘correctly’ we must speak English with them, right?However, this idea is a barrier to the reality that languages are not so black and white. Especially English because it is the global language for communication.

同英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)者對(duì)話(huà)真的對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)有幫助嗎?邏輯上似乎是合理的。很多人認(rèn)為如果想地道地說(shuō)英語(yǔ)，當(dāng)然要同英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)者對(duì)話(huà)，因?yàn)橛⒄Z(yǔ)母語(yǔ)者創(chuàng)造并一直在使用英語(yǔ)。但，語(yǔ)言運(yùn)用沒(méi)有明確的對(duì)錯(cuò)之分，尤其是作為國(guó)際通用語(yǔ)——英語(yǔ)。

Languages are fluid and evolving. There is no perfect way to speak them. Native speakers bend the rules, and usually we do NOT care if learners make mistakes, as longas we can understand them.

語(yǔ)言是多變的，在不斷進(jìn)化。沒(méi)有什么所謂的，能完美地運(yùn)用一門(mén)語(yǔ)言的說(shuō)法。事實(shí)上，(在日常生活中)人們也不在乎語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)者是否會(huì)犯錯(cuò)誤，只要大家可以相互理解就可以了。

試想一下：

你和一個(gè)學(xué)中文的外國(guó)人聊天，如果他犯了中文語(yǔ)法錯(cuò)誤，你會(huì)生氣嗎?我想你肯定不會(huì)生氣。

English learners can succeed in getting real fluency without ever living abroad or speaking with anative speaker.

所以，英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者并不需要在海外生活或者與英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)者交流才能把英語(yǔ)學(xué)好。

誤區(qū)1：natives speak的英語(yǔ)才地道（×）

2.與native speaker交流的認(rèn)識(shí)誤區(qū)

真相2：英語(yǔ)是一門(mén)國(guó)際語(yǔ)言（√）

English is used in virtually allcross-cultural interactions, like business and tourism. In fact, there are twice as many non-native English speakers than natives!For this reason, it would be foolish to have a goal of only speaking with native speakers. You need to have a global perspective, and be able to communicate with people from any country, despite their accent.I would even argue that we are evolving beyond needing to choose between learning American or British English. Soon, students will learn global English.

英語(yǔ)作為國(guó)際語(yǔ)言廣泛應(yīng)用于商務(wù)，旅游，跨文化交流等用途。事實(shí)上，使用英語(yǔ)的非母語(yǔ)者人數(shù)是英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)者人數(shù)的兩倍。單單是這個(gè)原因，一心想著和本地人講英語(yǔ)，這個(gè)想法是不切實(shí)際的。我們需要有國(guó)際化視野，可以和任何一個(gè)國(guó)家的人用英語(yǔ)溝通，即使他們會(huì)帶有口音。我甚至覺(jué)得，將來(lái)學(xué)英語(yǔ)的人(可能)不會(huì)再糾結(jié)是學(xué)習(xí)英音還是美音。大家(將要)學(xué)習(xí)國(guó)際化的英語(yǔ)。

誤區(qū)2：natives speak能糾正錯(cuò)誤（×）

真相2：“輸入”和“輸出”更重要（√）

有一些學(xué)英語(yǔ)的小伙伴，會(huì)覺(jué)得不和英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)者交流，就無(wú)法提高自己的英語(yǔ)理解能力。但，如果你英語(yǔ)聽(tīng)力，詞匯，語(yǔ)法，或者是發(fā)音有問(wèn)題，單純地與英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)者交流并不能解決。

Not having native speakers around is NOT avalid excuse not to improve your English.A good teacher’s job is not to make you learn. A good teacher is your guide on the path to fluency. But it is up to YOU to walk the path.

身邊沒(méi)有英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)者不是英語(yǔ)說(shuō)不好的借口。一個(gè)優(yōu)秀的老師不是強(qiáng)迫你去學(xué)習(xí)，而是引導(dǎo)你如何流利地用英語(yǔ)表達(dá)自我。能達(dá)到怎樣的一個(gè)程度，完全取決于你自己。

The most valuable part of speaking with someone from the U.S.A., U.K., etc. is that you get to hear the language as it is spoken in that country. NOT that you will get your mistakes corrected. In my experience, unless it is a teacher that you are paying, it is unlikely that anative speaker will correct your mistakes.

與美國(guó)人，英國(guó)人等英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)者交流，可以使你更了解美音，英音，不能寄望于他們給你糾正錯(cuò)誤。根據(jù)我個(gè)人的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，除非你花錢(qián)請(qǐng)老師，否則英語(yǔ)母語(yǔ)者都不大可能幫你糾正錯(cuò)誤。

That is why the difference between input(reading, listening) and output (writing, speaking) is so important.

這就是為什么“輸入”和“輸出”變得這么重要。

什么是輸入/輸出

When improving our speaking is the goal, listening is especially important to absorb how the language is naturally spoken.The wonderful thing about English is that there are tons and tons of resources for input that are easily accessible for anyone. You can listen to podcasts and radio and watch TV series and movies(learn more here).

如果你想提高你的口語(yǔ)能力，多聽(tīng)是最好的“輸入”方式，因?yàn)樗梢宰屇愀惺苓@門(mén)語(yǔ)言最自然的表達(dá)方式。學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)的一個(gè)好處就是你有數(shù)不盡的資源可以去利用，譬如聽(tīng)播客、廣播、電視劇、電影等。
