A wide variety of language contained in this world. One is the language
english. To apply their own English language is like
Indonesian, there is a verbal language is language that directly
non-verbal language is spoken and the written language. To learn
English is actually not difficult, we can little by little
memorizing vocabulary, listening to conversations and learn to write. Now
that had been in say a little bit difficult in the English language that is
when we study grammar. What about when we want to say
a sentence that is happening, in the past and future,
maybe not only that existing grammar in English but
His many others. As the causative have and get, Active-
Passive Participle, Agreement, infinitive, Word Order, Passive Voice, Capital

Secondary English teacher once told me the foundation of learning
English is actually easy if you already understand very well than
the use of Past Tense, Present and Future Tense. Yahh .. it really is a third
"tense" which became essentially, that's what he says. For
my english is a key to studying a wide range
language in the world. How not, English is
international. Apart from the respective national language everyone
in this world to use English in their dealings with each
another. I also enjoy using and learning English. I
glad to hear his music and movies that speak english. I also
have a favorite foreign artists such as Rihana, Justin Bieber, Tom
Cruise, Neyo and many others. Sometimes I often find
translation of some English songs that I like with it
indirectly to increase the English vocabulary, with
listening to English-language songs that can also train
my english language skills. In the current era where communication is not
longer limited by space and time we can utilize media such as facebook,
Twitter and Yahoo Messenger to hone English language skills with
