How to learn English

Two friends,Raghib and Adeeb, wanted to learn how to ride a cycle. Adeeb bought a book called How to Ride a Cycle and started reading it. On the other hand, Raghib took out his cycle on the street and started trying to ride it. He fell off several times and Adeeb laughed at him.

However, by the time Adeeb finished the first chapter of his book, Raghib was riding his cycle fairly well. Aseeb knew how the cycle worked but did not know how to use it. Raghib did not needto know everything about how his cycle worked but he knew how to use it from first-hand expereince.

Learning a language is like riding cycle. The most important thing about any language is communication. You learn to commuicate effectively by using a language , by doing things with it, and by experiencing it. You can learn English in the same way that Raghib learnt to ride a cycle. Don't worry if people laugh (হাসি) at  you when you make mistakes. You can certainly learn through mistakes.
