ENGLISH - THE FUNNIEST LANGAUGE We will begin with BOX and the plural is BOXES But the plural of OX should be OXEN and not OXES. Then one fowl is GOOSE but two are GEESE Yet the plural of MOUSE should never be MEESE. You may find a lone MOUSE or a whole set of MICE But the plural of HOUSE is HOUSES not HICE. If the plural of MAN be always MEN Why shouldn’t the plural of PAN be PEN? If I speak of a FOOT and then you show me your FEET And I give you a BOOT, would a pair be called BEET?

S RD S O W AM E G RDS WO S GAME WORDS GAMES

If one is TOOTH, and a whole set is TEETH Why should not the plural of BOOTH be BEETH? Then one may be THAT and three may be THOSE Yet HAT in the plural would never be HOSE And the plural of CAT is CATS not COSE. We speak of a BROTHER and also a BRETHREN But although we say MOTHER we never say MOTHREN. Then the masculine pronouns are HE, HIS and HIM But imagine the feminine SHE, SHIS and SHIM. So, English, I fancy, you will agree, is the FUNNIEST LANGUAGE you ever did see!

English Language Games/11


Sir, many people say that one should know the “Basic Grammar” of a language to learn it. Is it true?

Sir, what is Grammar?

Grammar! It is nothing but a set of rules. It is the study or use of the rules about how words change their form and combine with other words to make sentences.

Yeah. It is true. Grammar is the foundation of any language. If you know the “Basic Elements” well you can use it in any way you like. You will be the master, you know?

Sir, would you help me to learn English grammar, please? Yes. Learning English grammar is very easy. It is a fun to play with words. There are many games to learn English language. You will learn all these step by step. But Sir, there is one more popular definition given in the “Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary”.

Sir, what is a Sentence? Could you explain, please? A Sentence is a word or group of words that gives full meaning and makes some sense.

Sir, who am I? Tell me.

L BAL

A SENTENCE is a grammatically self contained speech unit consisting of a word or group of words that expresses an assertion (.), a question (?), a command / request / order/ appeal (“...”), a wish or an exclamation (!), that in writing usually begins with a capital letter and concludes with appropriate end punctuation, and that in speaking is phonetically distinguished by various patterns of stress, pitch and pauses. 26/English Language Games

BOOKS

ENGLI SH

Hello Sir! I would like to purchase some books on “Spoken English”. Could you suggest a few titles, please?

Well! You can take any book of your choice. There are so many on the shelves right in front of you. A few more books are suggested in this article too. Hope you find your choice book here. Good luck!

Hello! Will you send me a copy of “Applied English Course”, please?

ED APPLI SH ENGLI SE COUR E BEDR

Excuse me, Sir. Would you help me to find the frequency of BBC English Lessons, please? I need to listen to them.

Do you teach English Grammar in British Schools, Sir?

Yes. It is on Short Wave Meter Band 16, 19 and 25 bewteen 8.00 a.m. and 8.15. a.m.

Yes Sir! English is our mother tongue. Even then we teach English Grammar in British Schools. As a part of our general knowledge, grammar should be taught in schools. A good knowledge of grammar should help us use language more efficiently, both in our writing and speaking. It should encourage us to be precise and measured in our utterances. And, of course, knowledge of our own grammar will be especially helpful to us when we come to study foreign languages and their grammars. 212/English Language Games


›P‹¬W‹Ÿ‹ BoW‹Ÿ‹· GAMES WITH SENTENCES

What’s a Sentence?

A Sentence is a word or group of words that gives full meaning and makes some sense.

Whaw! It is really nice. You are very kind, Dear. Are there any more bouquets? Please, get me one more. I love it.

How are you, Sir? I think you are the first person to climb this mountain, aren’t you? Do you join me for coffee?

A SENTENCE is a grammatically self contained speech unit consisting of a word or group of words that expresses an assertion (.), a question (?), a command /request / appeal (“..”), a wish or exclamation (!), that in writing usually begins with a capital letter and concludes with appropriate end punctuation, and that in speaking is phonetically distinguished by various patterns of stress, pitch and pauses.
