Learning English: English Thinking and Translation Thinking

1

What is English thinking? Many people want to get English thinking, but they don't know what English thinking is. They think it is to learn some authentic expressions, some strange metaphors and idioms.

2

To put it bluntly, English thinking is very simple, which is daily life. Do you order in English? Or buy food? Or do you cook with English recipes? Half the time every day, do you solve your daily needs in English?

You may not have English thinking, but you must have gained Chinese thinking. What is the thinking of China people? When you study English or use English, does Chinese thinking still dominate?

four

When learning or using English, if Chinese thinking is dominant, we can say that this thinking is translation thinking. In other words, Chinese, the big nanny, has been escorting you. Every English sentence you say is translated into English first.

It's a pity that everyone is training their own translation thinking, whether they are learning English on campus or teaching themselves English. They always learn English in Chinese instead of learning English directly. When memorizing words, what you remember in your mind is the Chinese meaning. When reciting, the translated Chinese version of the article and the main idea of the article also jumped in my mind.

It can be said that at the end of English learning, everyone just added a new function to their mother tongue-helping them decode foreign languages. As for the foreign language itself, it will always be a stepmother, and there will never be intimacy.

seven

Long-term school education has formed a mindset and path dependence. Now they have left the campus. They taught themselves a foreign language in the old way. The more you learn, the more difficult and boring it is.

The method I am talking about here is very simple, that is, to make English everyday. I hope you can solve your daily needs in English. Of course, at home, we may not have such conditions, and it is impossible to go abroad casually. In fact, even if you go abroad, no one will help you with your English. On the contrary, when foreigners come to China, many people are willing to help them if they want to learn Chinese. This is a cultural difference. China people are keen on collectivism, while foreigners are indifferent to individualism.

How can English live without life scenes and application scenes? If you can't find a way out, recite English honestly!
