Tedious grammar learning

[LP]

Hello! Let's start a new topic .
I would like to put a question to you.
In what way you study a english language?
Is a tedious grammar learning a only way?

I'm sorry for possible mistakes. I hope for answers.  TIA

The best way to learn english depends on your needs.  If you want to speak english fluently and understands what you hear then go and learn to speak.

If you need good written English then learn how to write in English.

These two activities have much in common but also demonstrate significant differences.  Many people can speak English but fewer people can write well (including englishmen themselves). On the contrary there are people who have good written English and awful spoken one.

Learning writing in English no doubts requires more grammer drilling then learning speaking does.

I mean all english primers.

The best way to learn english depends on your needs.

I need a acquisition of written english, particulary, for reading books.
Sometimes when i read something,
i don't understand one, _{[is it a proper construction? ]}though i know a meaning every word.

If you need good written English then learn how to write in English.

ie should i learn a grammar rules? But englishmen have avoided this fate.

Nope. Those smooth-talking Oxford (or harvard or yale or UC or whatever decent school you might think of) alumni spent an awful lot of time writing essays and polishing their language skills.

Most of those Englishmen who didn't learn their grammar -bah, they can't read fine-print on their bills and of course can't write fluently. And can't even speak correctly. Same holds for russians, BTW.

If you want to know how to chat casually - that's one case. Go to online forums, get some quick'n'dirty lessons from aborigenes. If you want to be able to compose a decent essay - that's another matter.

So learn your grammar while you can, man. I'm still having troubles with english tenses just because it felt was so darn boring back in school days.
