Technology for Learning Grammar

Hello all....

How are you? Are you ready for this explanation? What I am going to discuss this time?

All right, in this opportunity, I would like to explain about "Technology for Learning Grammar". What is grammar?

Grammar is the structure and system of a language or of languages in general, usually considered or consist of syntax and morphology.

Do we need to study grammar to learn a language? The short answer is "no". Many people in the world speak their own, native language without having studied its grammar. Children start to speak before they even know the word "grammar". But if you are serious about learning a foreign language, the long answer is "yes, grammar can help you to learn a language more quickly and more efficiently." It's important to think of grammar as something that can help you, like a friend. When you understand the grammar (or system) of a language, you can understand many things yourself, without having to ask a teacher or look in a book.

In learning activities about Technology for Learning Grammar we discussed a number of websites that can be used to learn Grammar, one of which is VOA Learning English. As a task, we have to choose one video that we think is the most interesting from VOA Learning English Everyday Grammar. Below is a video that I selected along with the reviews.

I watch several videos from VOA Learning English. Those are grammar in everyday life. The video titles I watch are "native speaker mistakes", "imprecise nouns", "you know", "understanding fast talkers", "eager vs. anxious "," stative verbs "," causatives (get & have) "," euphemistic phrasal verbs ", and" portmanteaus ". The content of those videos is about some mistakes in speaking English, some tips and tricks, proper use of vocabulary, and some things that are not widely known by people.

The most interesting video for me is causatives (get & have) video. This is very surprising for me to know the fact that "get" and "have" have such functions. Honestly, I just found out this content. This video explains that we can use the word "get" and have another person doing something. For example, 1.) I have cut my hair 2.) I got my boss to give me a promotion. We use "have" if someone does a service for you and "get" to someone to do something but that person may not want to do it.

I also have another Youtube channel to learn grammar. Below is the video.

That's all from me, Thank you for reading.

TANJUNG KARANG BEACH

😊 assalamu'alaikum..😇 Tanjung Karang Beach is located in Donggala district, Central Sulawesi. To get there, we must take time for approximately one hour from Palu. A trip to the beach will not be boring, because during the trip we will see the beautiful view of Teluk Palu Beach in the right side of the road, green scenery, and some buildings that still use Dutch architecture. So, we can feel like in the past. Tanjung Karang Beach is very suitable as a tourist destination to eliminate our feeling of tired and bored with the city hustle. From Jambi to Palu takes time for about 6 to 10 hours by plane. Beside Tanjung Karang Beach, I also visited Talise Beach, Nusantara Beach, Lengkung Kuning Bridge, and Floating Mosque. But, my favorite place is Tanjung Karang Beach. I am very happy to visit there because the place is clean and the coral reef is very beautiful. But, unfortunetely I cannot swim. So, I cannot snorkel. Finally, we rented a boat and we can enj...
