The Important of English Language - Trenglish

Assalamualaikum WBT,

"When you have a lot of things to be done, all you need is focus".
This is actually very true.

Do you know, when we talked about resolutions, yes, its new year and it is never too late to have one or more resolutions. I too have my own resolutions, and for this blog, I want to write as much as I can to assist people to learn English grammar.

Why do I think I need to have such resolution? It is because, I believe that learning never stops. Never. This is one of the ways for me to help other people. Yes, there are other ways, but to be, blogging or social media is one of the best ways to make others know of what we have to offer.

Yes, I want too people to say that,

"ahh... I know this English grammar from The English Journey, they have information on English grammar. Its very helpful".

I want people to see that English grammar is very important these days, with the examinations and whatnot, I believe we are better than we are now. Do you know that, in Terengganu they have this programme called Trenglish, which is a programme that helps students with English language through many activities and camps. This is a very good programme, some of my friends also involved as the T-Help (Terengganu Hired English Language Personnel), they will help the English teacher enhancing the students ability in learning English language.

This is a statement I managed to get from the newspaper online, I have got two sources, The Star and The Sunday Mail,

“We need T-Help because it was found that all the 20 ETA teachers are not proficient in Malay and this poses a problem for them to communicate with students in class,”. This was said by the State Education Director Mr Zakaria Hussin. The programme is the state initiative to improve the number of proficiency among Terengganu students.

So, do other state practice the same programme? I think, when they see how important the programme is and when they see the result of this programme, then they will take action. As for now, they usually take the 'wait-and-see' method before taking any consideration to follow such act.

Through reading, I found out that this programme is using modules that really student friendly and it really helps students to improve their own English proficiency.

I think that is all for now. Need to some reading about English grammar and I will get back to you later today, okay? Lovely.

Assalamualaikum WBT

p/s. Hope on with me through this journey.

Happy New Year my Dear Readers. Love u all.

Assalamualaikum WBT,

It has been a while my dearie readers, I am so sorry for not writing any input here. Well, as far I think I could cope with two blogs, it turned out that I had not enough time to do some research on English language in any aspects, and also my other blog, New Interesting Manuscripts (NIM), its actually quite hard. I need to write in Malay and English, both have different medium. I tend to use my own mother tongue to write in NIM and I have to use my second language for The English Journey (TEJ), well, both need to have input otherwise it would just mere common blogs right?

Now I have found amazing article to be paraphrase, revise and segment because I need to write it in my own understanding otherwise, if I just put everything in, it would be some plagiarism right? Its a no-no in any academic writing. I actually consider what I am doing here in this blog it more like academic writing, even though it is not as academic as those thesis or academic article written by amazing academia. 

I actually very love learning English language and to me English language is very much the same as other languages. Its very lovely actually. I really want to actually further my studies in English language it I can, it would be in English Literature or Sociolinguistics. To be honest, I have found these two subjects would be very interesting. Literature is more on the creative side where we need to analyse what would be the inside meaning of others works. Let say, analysing Shakespeare's works and trying to be creative mind and trying to see the underlying meaning of his works. How amazingly difficult to convey that meaning and trying to tear thing apart for the sake of your thesis, right? hehe..

On the other hand, we have another amazingly fact subject, which is Sociolinguistics; focusing how social background affects language acquisitions. Fascinating subjects indeed. Plus, there are many elements that we need to think of in Sociolinguistics, semantic, phonology, sentence structure and whatnot. Why these elements is important? It is because, in looking indepth on the affect of social background to language acquisitions, we need to look at these elements. Nothing is sure, unless you managed to get the unbeatable evidences in your defense in let say, Viva? Right?

Personally, I would love to take on any each, but thinking about things might come in my way, it made me think twice before making such decision. Hahaha... well, tomorrow is new year right? So, happy new year and make your 2014 an big history that you would never forget and let 2015 a big year to come. Indeed, you have to make something for 2015, and I will. Yes. 

Assalamualaikum WBT
