Uppercase English alphabet: features of spelling letters. English alphabet in words English letters in words and printed

When teaching English, it is necessary to use all four types of speech acts harmoniously. Good English can only be achieved through a combination of speaking, daily reading, and listening to live English speech and correct writing.

Modern written English does not place too much emphasis on the development of calligraphic skills in the sense that students are not taught the skills of connecting letters into words. Perhaps this is due to the fact that we are increasingly typing on the computer.

The youngest schoolchildren are taught to write letters in special copybooks, indicating with arrows the direction of hand movement when writing. When children begin to master written English letters and then combine them into words, they must be taught that the distance between letters should be less than the distance between words. As practice shows, this is not such a simple task.

Written English letters (alphabet)

The written English alphabet is not difficult to write. Much more difficult is the so-called spelling. The fact is that in English many words are written differently from how they sound in speech. An illustrative example is the word “choir” [ˈkwaɪə]. According to linguists, it is impossible for a Russian-speaking person to write this word “by ear” without knowing it.

This is where spelling comes in, which means “pronouncing a word by letter.” Moreover, this technique is used not only by language learners, but also by English-speaking people themselves. To write a lexical item correctly, you need to learn the following phrases asking for help:

Spell it please! Spell this word please!

Could you spell this word please? Could you say this word letter by letter please!

Thus, it is best to study the written letters of the English alphabet together with spelling. In the English alphabet, some letters are pronounced differently from the letters of the generally accepted Latin alphabet. These are a, c, e, g [ʤiː], h, i, j [ʤeɪ], r [ɑː], u, y. When practicing spelling, pay special attention to these letters. Another important point is that when pronouncing words by letter, they should sound strictly as they are pronounced in the alphabet.

The role of written English

When learning any language, it is necessary to place emphasis on the order of skill development. Think about how he perceives native language child:

• From the first minutes of birth, he listens (listening);
• Begins to pronounce sounds, put them into words and phrases (speaking);
• Begins to recognize letters, read individual words, and then texts;
• Writes the first letter scribbles, traces the letters according to the rules and gradually reaches the texts.

We come to the conclusion that the written part in English requires the ability to listen, speak well and read well. At each age, it is necessary to achieve the necessary balance of these skills, and not start writing without, for example, listening.

Written English lessons

With a reasonable approach to development writing By high school or by the end of language courses, students develop sufficient literacy. After the 9th and 11th grades of school, students can choose to take an English exam, where the last task is writing. This is the most difficult part of the exam, so take your English writing lessons seriously when preparing for the final test.

It is very important to practice exercises on word order, which is quite strict in English. When writing simple texts, use simple sentences following the rules:

• In an affirmative sentence, first there is a subject, then a predicate, then an object, and the construction is completed by a circumstance (place, time, and so on);
• IN interrogative sentences the word order changes or an additional auxiliary verb “do” appears;
• In a negative sentence after auxiliary verb“not” appears or pronouns or adverbs appear before the verb, carrying a negation in themselves (nobody, never).

Written assignments in English

When completing written assignments in English, in the future use complex sentences, each part of which, as a rule, has its own subject and predicate:

When I was a young boy, I used to wear long hair. When I was a boy, I wore my hair long.

Written work in English requires the ability to rationally distribute information. To do this, you need to be able to divide texts into paragraphs, use conjunctions and special connecting words:

First(ly) - firstly;

Second(ly) - secondly;

Besides - besides;

Moreover - moreover;

In conclusion - in conclusion;

Therefore - therefore.
