Rules for Speaking English Fluently
Don't study grammar too much
It may be amazing for ESL students, but it is most important. If you want to clear examinations, then study grammar. However, if you want to be fluent in English, then you should learn English without grammar.
Grammar slowly and intrigue. They will tell about the rules when creating sentences instead of naturally, to think a sentence like a native speaker. Note that only a small fraction of English to more than 20% of all the rules of grammar to learn. Many ESL students know more grammar than native speakers.

文法學一點點就好
對ESL(英語不是母語)的學生來說，這是有點神奇卻又很重要的一點。如果你學英語的目的是為了考試，那請你一定要學文法。但若是想學說一口流利的英文，那麼就先別管文法吧！學文法要有計劃性地慢慢來。當你依着文法規則說出來的句子，一聽就不自然，請試著像母語是英文的人一樣的思考。英文文法只要學一些些，最多學到全部文法的五分之一就夠用了。很多ESL學生懂的文法比英文是母語的人還多。
Learn and study phrases
Most of the students learn vocabulary and try to put numerous words collectively to create a correct sentence. It amazes how many words some of students know, but they cannot create a good sentence. The reason is because they didn't study phrases. When children learn a language, they learn both words and phrases mutually. Likewise, you require to study and learn phrases.
If you recognize 1000 words, you might not be able to say one proper sentence. But if you know 1 phrase, you can create hundreds of correct sentences. If you know 100 phrases, you will be amazed at how many correct sentences you will be capable to say. You will be almost a fluent English speaker when you know only a 1000 phrases.
The English Speaking Basics section is a good example of making many sentences with a single phrase. So don't spend hours to learning lot of different words. Use that time to study phrases instead and you will be closer to English fluency.

要學就學片語
大多數學生學單字時會想要把很多字放在一起，想要創造一個正確的句子。神奇的是，有些學生學了很多字，卻說不出一個好句子。究其原因，就是不學片語惹的禍。當小孩子在學語言的時候，他們是同時學會單字和片語的。因此，當你學語言時，也要向小孩子看齊。
如果你認得1000個字，你可能說不出一個好句子。但是如果你懂得一個片語，你有可能說出好多對的句子。因此，如果你懂得 100 個片語，你一定會很驚訝到底你可以說出多少好句子呀！你有可能因為懂得 100 個片語，就可以把英文說得很流利了。
The English Speaking Basics(英語口說基礎）這個單元就是一個懂得片語就能說很多句子的好例子。所以，別再浪費時間學單字了，要學就學片語。花一樣的時間學習，學片語可以讓你說得更流利。
Don't translate
If you want to make an English sentence, do not translate the words from your Mother tongue. The arrangement of words is perhaps totally different and you will be both sluggish and incorrect by doing this. Instead, learn phrases and sentences so you don't have to consider about the words you are saying. It should be regular.
One more problem with translating is that you will be trying to include grammar rules that you have learned. Thinking and translating the grammar to create English sentences is wrong and should be avoided.
Reading and Listening is NOT enough. Practice speaking what you hear
Listening, Reading and speaking are the most vital aspects of any language. The same is true for English. However, speaking is the only necessity to be fluent. It is usual for kids and children to learn speaking first, become fluent, then begin reading, then writing. So the normal order is listening, speaking, reading and then writing.
不要翻譯
當你說英文的時候，不要按照中文一個字一個字的翻譯。中文和英文的語法不見的完全一樣，而且當你逐字翻譯時，會顯得既吞吞吐吐又錯誤百出。因此，請學片語和正確的句子，這樣一來你纔可以不經思考就能說出好英文。請讓這樣的習慣成為你學英文的好習慣。
當你逐字翻譯時還會有另一個問題出現，那就是你會想要把學會的文法規則也套用進去。應該避免這樣邊想邊套用文法翻譯來想英文的句子，這樣是不對的。
光學閱讀和聽力是絕對不夠的。把你所聽到的.所讀到的用口語練習來表達，是學習任何語言很重要的一環。學英文也是一樣。然而，口說能力是唯一需要流利表達的。通常對幼童來說，他們先學會說話，然後進一步可以流暢的表達，然後才學習閱讀和書寫。所以，學語言正常的順序應該是聽，說，讀，寫。
1st Problem
Isn't it odd that schools across the globe teach reading first, then writing, then listening, and finally speaking? Even if it is dissimilar, the main cause is because when you learn a second language, you have to to read material to recognize and learn it. So even though the natural order is listening, speaking, reading, then writing, the order for ESL students is reading, listening, speaking, and then writing.

第一個問題
全世界各地教英文的順序，不約而同地都先教閱讀，接著教寫作，再教聽力，最後才教口說，這樣的順序不是很奇怪嗎？就算順序不盡相同，但是最主要的原因是因為，當你學習第二語言時，你必須要有教材可以認讀纔有辦法可以學。所以即使正常的順序是聽，說，讀，寫，但是對 ESL 的學生卻是讀，聽，說，然後寫。
2nd Problem
The reason a lot of people can read and listen is because that's all they do. But in order to speak English smoothly, you need to practice speaking. Don't stop at the listening portion, and when you study don't just listen. Speak out noisy the material you are listening to and practice what you listen. Practice speaking out loud until your mouth and brain can act it without any try. By doing so, you will be capable to speak English fluently.
第二個問題
大多數學生只會讀跟聽是因為他們只學這兩樣。但是，為了可以流利地說英文，你需要多多練習。不要停留在只聽不說的階段。試著把書上的東西大聲念出來，同時也試著把聽到的東西說出來。練習大聲說出來一直到你可以不經大腦就能說出來為止。只有做到這樣，你才能流利地學會說英文。
Submerge yourself
Speak a language is not connected to how elegant you are. Anyone can learn how to speak any language. This is a confirmed fact by everyone across the globe. Everyone can speak at least one language. Whether you are smart, or missing some brain power, you are able to speak one language.
In your country, you hear and speak your language continually. You will observe that various people who are good English speakers are the ones who studied in an English speaking institute. They can speak English not because they go to an English speaking school, but because they had surroundings where they can be around English speaking people regularly.
There are also some people who study overseas and learn extremely slight. That is because they went to an English learning school, but found people from their own nation and didn't practice English.
You don't need to go anyplace to become a fluent English speaker. You only need to surround yourself with English. You can do this by making rules with your friends that you will only speak English. Submerge yourself in English and you will learn several times quicker.
沈浸在英語之中
說好英文跟你本人優不優雅無關。任何人都可以學好英文。這是放諸四海皆準的一個通則。任何人都可以學會一種語言。不管你是不是夠聰明，腦袋靈不靈光，你都可以學會的。
在臺灣，我們會聽會說國語是很自然的。你可以觀察一下，英文說得流利的各式各樣的人中，他們通常是在語言中心學會英文的。他們會說英文並不是因為他們在學校學的，而是他們身處在旁邊的人都在說英語的情境當中。當然也有人飛到國外去學英文卻不見得學得好的。那是因為當他們去語言學校上課，身邊卻都是來自相同國家的人，失去了練習英文的機會。
想學會流利的英語，其實你哪裡都不必去。你只要讓自己身處在英語的環境中就可以了。你可以和朋友約法三章一起練習說英文。把自己沈浸在英語的環境中，你可以學得非常快。
Study correct material
A common phrase that is incorrect is, "Practice makes perfect." This is far from the truth. Practice only makes what you are practicing everlasting. If you practice the wrong sentence, you will have perfected saying the sentence incorrectly. Therefore, it is essential that you study material that is usually used by the majority of people.
Another difficulty is that many students study the news. However, the language they speak is more official and the content they use is more political and not used in routine. It is significant to understand what they are saying, but this is more of an advanced lesson that should be studied after learning the basics of English.
You should be conscious of the pros and cons of speaking with a non native speaking friend. Practicing with a non native person will give you practice. You can also encourage each other and point out basic mistakes. Use these practice times as a time period to practice the correct stuff you learn. Not to study how to say a sentence.
In short, study English material that you can trust, which is commonly used is correct.
選對教材
有一句常聽到的成語說“熟能生巧”，這句話其實不太對。練習，其實是讓你所練習的內容變熟練。所以，如果你選錯教材，那你練熟的就是不正確的東西了。因此，選“對”的教材就顯得很重要了，一定要選用大多數人都選用的教材。
另一個難題是很多人經由英語新聞來學習。然而，新聞中所使用的英文通常較正式，並不是我們日常生活中會用到的詞彙。聽懂英語新聞的內容是很重要的，但是這適合高級程度的學生，卻不見得適合初學者。
當你和母語不是英文的朋友說話時，你會需要有說英語的自覺（知道怎樣是對的，怎樣是錯的）。和母語非英語的朋友一起練習會提供你練習的機會。你們也可以互相鼓勵，同時也指出基本的錯誤。利用這些練習的時機，把你學到的東西都拿出來練一練。而不是光說不練。
簡單來說，就是選擇值得你信任的，普羅大眾都在使用教材來學習。
