Introduction

We all know that learning a new language can be difficult, but there are ways to make the process a little easier. 

Examples

 

Information - In - for -ma -tion

Definition - Def - I - ni -tion

Successfull - Suc - cess - full

Imagination - I - mag - ni - a - tion

 

Then repeat each word slowly and start to say it faster and faster. Soon you will be saying the word

 

Remember never be afraid to say something. Most foreigners will understand what you are trying to say and will help you. Even if you make a mistake you are still learning. It is always better to make a mistake and learn than to be quiet and learn nothing.
