Hello guys!

Welcome to my blog, in this we will see about good English.

What is good English?

Never has there been a great need to make sure that you write and speak good English.
      This is true of people in countries such as the UK where English is the native language, and of people in countries where English is a second or foreign language. In countries where English is the native tongue, a marked emphasis is now being placed on the need for competent communicative skills in the workplace. Many employers complain that a significant number of the people whom they recruit for jobs sadly lacking in these skills. This is true of young people who have just graduated from some of the top universities.


 You might think that grammar and spelling are trivial matter. You might think it's just not that important to your line of work. You might think that as long as the facts are correct, what does it matter if the grammar is bad? However, poor grammar reflects badly on you-- you might miss out on a job opportunity, you might not be taken seriously when making a complaint, you could even off a potential Internet date--all because of terrible grammar and sloppy spelling! Any public display of poor language skill can give a very bad impression of even the most intelligent person.



      Although life in the modern world is generally less formal than it was and people, both in a personal and business context, write considerably fewer letters that formerly, people frequently have to demonstrate their powers of communication in the workplace. For example, they might have to write  marketing report or give an oral presentation on a project.

       When it comes to correspondence, emails many have taken over from formal letters to a large extent. However, it reflects badly on the company if the emails are sloppily written and full of errors. The computer spellchecker can only help you out to some extent. 

       At the same time, the importance of English as a world language continues to grow. It gained world language continues to grow. It gained supremacy when Britain was a major colonial power and it has gradually extended its influence since then. English is the language of business, marketing and other important areas of life, a position that is greatly strengthened by the fact that a form of English, known as American English , is spoken by our powerful transatlantic allies. In fact, there are many versions of standard English spoken around the world: British, American, Canadian,  Australian, Indian, South African, New Zealand and more. All have rich variations in vocabulary, syntax, semantics and grammar.


 The enlargement in the European Union can only increase the status of English and add greatly to the number of people wishing to speak it. Already, more and more people in other countries are anxious to learn English and there is an ever-increasing demand both for teachers of English as a second or foreign language and for effective teaching materials in these areas.

  But what is good English, or even correct, English? Don't those of us who learn it as a native tongue at our mother's knee automatically speak and write it correctly? Alas, the answer to it no. Native speaker obviously have much less of a struggle learning to speak good English than learning of English than learners of English as a foreign or second language do, but the process is not effort-free.

  Good or correct English is often regarded as grammatical English. Grammar has variously described as the framework on which ideas are hung, and the cement that binds words together. Basically, grammar refers to the rules that govern the way a language works. Society cannot operate without rules and neither can language.

 
The prospect of learning grammar, or brushing it up, is more likely to depress those whose native tongue is English as a second or foreign language are used to grips with the grammar of their own languages and will not protest so much. English is not alone in having grammar! 
   
    Often the first time that people come into contact with written rules of grammar is broken up into vocabulary, parts of speech, regular and irregular verbs, tenses, agreements and structures etc. The rules of this foreign language seen more explicit, more 'grammatical' than that of our own, but, of course, our own language has such rules, it's just that we don't notice them.
