Films provide more than just entertainment.Watching foreign language films is a way to develop language skills.While watching a film,you are immersed(沉浸)in the language and can pick up new expressions that you might not find in a textbook.Some difficulties can arise when watching foreign language films-for example,unfamiliar colloquial language or strong regional accents.With this in mind,here are my tips to help you make progress in English learning while enjoying the films.
Choose a film type that you enjoy.
If you like action films,watch an action film-for example Indiana Jones.If you prefer comedies,watch a comedy-anything with Hugh Grant in always provides a laugh!It's simple enough,but if you choose something you enjoy watching in your native language,you're more likely to enjoy it in English.
Choose something that you are familiar with.
It's best to start off with something simple because in this way you have a higher chance of understanding the film.Disney films such as The Lion King,or the more recently released Tangled,are classic examples.Other cartoons such as Rango and The Lego Movie are also worth a watch.
If you need to,use subtitles(字幕).
Subtitles are very helpful for beginners.using subtitles in your own language is the easiest choice,but for more advanced learners why not consider using English subtitles?This way,you can match the written subtitles to the words spoken on .screen.It helps you to develop your language further.
I hope you find these tips useful-if you want to recommend a film to other users,feel free to use the comments section!
