BELAJAR BAHASA INGGRIS

Bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing yang konon sebagai bahasa Internasional begitu menjadi bahasa utama, bahasa ngetrend, bahasa keren, bahasa hebat, bahasa dunia global, bahasa komunikatif tanpa pandang ras-suku-agama-negara, bahasa ilmuwan, bahasa guide, wislah pokoke macem-macem. Akhirnya orang-orang pada takut dengan bahasa inggris, was-was, khawatir, gimana nih, kepriben kiye, mumet..., angel...,pusing...!

Jangankan anda, saya yang guru bahasa inggris saja kadang-kadang grogi...malu kalo ditanya kata atau istlah inggris saya ga bisa jawab. Kenapa ? Karena tidak dibiasakan berbicara bahasa inggris.

Okelah kita akui bahasa inggris itu bahasa Internasional ( takdir kali ) kenapa kok bukan bahasa Indonesia atau bahasa Arab gitu loch ?

Siapa takut, ayo kita hadapi semampu kita, kita ngomong cas-cis-cus ga usah takut salah yang penting nyambung...ya kan...?

Terus gimana cara belajarnya ? Biar cas-cis-cus ?
Bahasa itu kebiasaan, habit, komunikasi. Jadi harus dibiasakan sejak lahir, sejak kecil dari yang terkecil sampai kalimat yang terpanjang.

Walaupun kita sudah tua, ya belajarnya dari yang kecil juga.
1. Dari kosa-kata
Anak kecil bilang : " Mom...mother...Dad...father...hello...go...! No...!Yes...!
Apa saja benda-benda disekitar kita sebut ucap dengan bahasa inggris.
Lalu coba ditulis apa yang kita ucapkan !

2. Dari Ungkapan
Oh no....! Oh my God Allah...! What...?!
I'm hungry Mom.
Ucapkan ungkapan-ungkapan apa saja yang ingin kita ucapkan.
Lalu coba ditulis apa yang kita ucapkan.

3. Dari Tanya Jawab ( Conversation )
What's your name ?
Husna.
Where do you live ?
Banjaragung.
Silahkan tanya dan tanya dengan bahasa inggris.
Bila kita ditanya jawab dan jawab dengan bahasa inggris.
Lalu coba tulis percakapan itu tadi.

4. Baru kita curahkan apa yang ingin kita ungkapkan, yang ingin kita ucapkan dengan bahasa tulis ( writing ). Apakah kita akan bercerita, mengkritik, menjelaskan, memaparkan, mendebat dll. Dari kata menjadi kalimat. Dari kalimat-kalimat akan menjadi paragraph. Dari paragraph-paragraph akan menjadi sebuah tulisan.

Untuk mengembangkan bahasa ini, kita bisa les, tanya guru bahasa inggris, baca-baca buku bahasa inggris, belajar dengan teman.

MARI KITA COBA, SAYA JUGA AKAN MENCOBA.
Saya juga merasa belum lancar berbahasa inggris. Bahasa Inggris tidak menakutkan, tapi mengasyikkan.
Anak kita, adik kita, teman kita, siswa kita, kita sapa dengan bahasa inggris.
Kita ajari dari yang terkecil. ( Khafidin Guru SMAN 1 Pemalang )
