1. No Brainer

The major organs that are involved in the fluency building are the speech organs. Once the speech organs start to understand the rules of the language, your brain ceases to intervene. Throughout the course, you will strive to acclimatize your tongue to adhere to the rules of grammar. Spoken English is all about being Spontaneous and generating speech on demand.

2. Languages are made for your Speech organs.

All the Rules of grammar are made to be easy on your Speech organs. If you wonder why a rule exists, it does simply because it's easy on your tongue.

Example

A) Plural of wife becomes wives because it's very difficult to say wifes. ( F and V are pronounced the same way by your speech organs)

B) An Apple because its difficult to say a apple. ( Two schwa sounds together)

Every rule in English ( or any other language for that matter) can be explained and learnt

 

3. Words are not the building blocks of Spoken Language ; Phrases are

If you want to master a spoken language like Spoken English, you must master the common phrases. These common phrases are the building blocks of the language and countless new phrases stem out of them. Imagine how fluent you will be in English if you learn to stem new phrases out of a few

Example

Consider 2 common phrases - " I don't have to tell you" and " he likes to know everything about the event".

From these phrases you can imagine how many more can stem

I don't have to come. ( Changing verb)

I don't have to do this. ( Changing Verb)

I don't have to listen to you everytime ( Changing Verb)

I don't have to tell you everything about the event. ( Combination)

4. Understanding grammar the conventional way doesn't work for spoken

Learning the rules of grammar works for those who want to write. But at the time of speaking, the rules of grammar can't help you. Rather your speech organs must understand the rules.

5. Substitution

In order to be fluent with limited vocabulary, you need to learn and use substitution techniques. You need to learn how to substitute "one complex word" for "a phrase of related words".

For Example, all the following convey almost the same message.

War Looks inevitable now.
War is looming large it seems.
I think it's going to be a war.
War can not be avoided now.

6. Fillers, initiators and rephrasers

Sometimes it's easy to go with some fillers whenever you encounter a pause during speaking. Same way, initiators give you a jump start to the conversation and rephrasers help you re-phrase the idea in a different way. All these are essential for fluency.

Now you are all ready to start your fluency building. Keep in mind that the tutorials that follow are meant to be read aloud.
