English Grammar for Beginners

Chapter 1: GREETINGS

Train your Ear!

Press play!



English grammar for beginners can be fun
and easy to learn.

1) Look at the picture.
2) Listen to the audio.
3) Say the words with the audio.
Repeat...repeat...repeat!




































Your Turn!


Imagine we are speaking to each other.
Respond to what I say in the next five examples.
There are several correct answers for each.

1)___________________

2)___________________

3)___________________

4)___________________

5)___________________




Please note:

It is going = It's going

How is it going = How's it going?

I am ok = I'm ok



This is called a contraction and it is very common and natural. Try to contract frequently when speaking. It sounds very natural! :)

Contractions make it difficult to understand native speakers sometimes. If you are comfortable with contractions when you first start to learn English, you will probably learn faster and be more comfortable interacting with fluent English speakers.


Possible answers for "Your Turn!"

5) See you later, Good-bye, Bye, Bye bye...
4) It is going __________ (great, well, ok...)
3) Good afternoon
2) I am ________ ( Ok, good, great, horrible, tired, hungry...)
1) Hi, Hello, Good _________ (morning afternoon or evening)

Study Tip: Try to do small things at a time. Learn small bits of Grammar and use them frequently. Make sure that you are always comfortable with what you have learnt and remember to try and listen and speak as well. (Writing and reading is not everything!)

Remember that learning English can take a long time, so enjoy the ride!
