Breaking Free Talk with 48 English Verbs
 |
Description
Book Introduction
I threw away all the English books that were piled up at home!
A miraculous learning method that will teach you English in 10 minutes, even after 10 years of study.
Let's do a simple test.
If a friend catches a cold, how do you express it in English? As you know, a cold is...
When I looked up 'transmit disease' in the English dictionary, the word 'infect' came up.
This is a word I'm seeing for the first time. Should I write it down in a vocabulary book and memorize it?
no.
Because 'to move' can also be expressed as 'give'.
We use give only when giving or receiving tangible objects, but in real life it is used in a much broader sense.
If I didn't know this, I would have had to memorize difficult words and use difficult expressions.
But now you can express it like this.
My friend gave me his cold.
(My friend gave me a cold.)
There will be no unfamiliar words in the sentence above.
If you master the conjugation of verbs like this, you can easily express any situation.
"48 English Verbs to Break Free Talk" teaches you the various uses of the 48 most commonly used verbs, allowing you to speak English fluently in any situation.
There's no need to think too hard about it.
Because these are all verbs you probably know.
You just didn't know how to use it.
So now it's time to learn how to use it.

Into the book
Why do so many people, despite studying and being exposed to English for so long, still fail to speak a single word? The reason is simple.
Because they don't know that they already know English.
That's a little funny.
I struggle to speak a word in English, yet I already know English.
But you, the reader, clearly know English.
--- p.2
The second meaning of attract is 'to gather (animals, insects, etc.) together, to lure'.
This time, animals and insects, not people, appear.
The reason why we classify people and animals separately like this is because applying it in English is not as easy as it sounds.
Learners who learn attract through examples related to 'people' will only insist on [attract + people].
Conversely, learners who learned attract through examples related to 'insects' can only use [attract + insect].
--- p.38
When studying basic verbs, rather than approaching each new meaning individually, it is more effective to learn several individual meanings while developing a single meaning.
It's about finding one core meaning that runs through multiple meanings.
--- p.68
I've been given a new job filming videos at work.
‘Filming a video’ can be easily expressed with do.
[make a video] emphasizes the process of planning, shooting, and editing the video, whereas [do a video] emphasizes the simple act of shooting the video.
When shooting a 1-minute video with a smartphone, [do a video] is suitable.
--- p.104
When assembling a table purchased from an online shopping mall, you should also refer to the instructions.
This situation is also expressed as [follow + the instructions].
It means following the instructions and manuals.
Where on earth can we go with the use of "follow"? From now on, it'll be fun to check out [follow + something]!
--- p.136
If you're combing your hair and your hair falls out, you say, "I'm starting to lose my hair." If you're suddenly losing your eyesight due to a health problem, you say, "I might lose my eyesight."
Take a look again at words you thought you knew the meaning of.
The more this happens, the more new meanings will emerge.
Of course, we should start with the '48 English Verbs', right?
--- p.218
I actually went to Brisbane and asked an Australian.
Can run be used for public transportation that runs on water?
(I was basically asking if you can run on water.) Of course, I got the answer that you can, and the ferry announcement kept saying run.
“This ferry runs until midnight.
(This ferry runs until midnight.)” All public transportation can run!
--- p.274
A friend I met at a cafe was holding a camera and said this.
“Let me show you how I use it.”
In English, it says, “Let me show you how to use this camera.”
This isn't just a situation where you're showing how to use the camera.
I am 'learning' how to use a camera and my friend is 'teaching' how to use a camera.
Then the [show = teach] formula makes sense.
Because they don't know that they already know English.
That's a little funny.
I struggle to speak a word in English, yet I already know English.
But you, the reader, clearly know English.

Publisher's Review
“Using difficult words in everyday conversation actually makes you feel awkward!”
48 verbs are enough
How many English words are there in the world? According to research, the number of usable English words, excluding dead and academic words, is currently around 300,000.
So, how long will it take to learn and master all these words? But don't worry.
Of these, only 15,000 words, or 5% of the total vocabulary, account for 92% of the total vocabulary actually used.
What's even more surprising is that it's just beginning.
The top 25 most frequent words account for 30% of all printed English media, and the top 100 most frequent words account for about 50%.
What's interesting is that as the frequency of use of a word goes down in the ranking, its frequency of use drops exponentially.
In other words, only a few words are used in real life, and other words are rarely used.
"48 English Verbs to Break Free Talk" teaches practical English that can handle countless situations using just 48 verbs that everyone knows.
There is no need to memorize entire sentences anymore.
Because this book will help you use the words you need when you need them.
So, when readers finish this book, they will have the confidence and ability to express their opinions in any situation.
