Music in English
Study tip
You can learn a lot of English by listening to songs and
singing the words. Listen and read the words of songs
on CDs or read the subtitles on DVDs. Or you can find
the words on the internet, for example, using Google
oratwww.lyrics.com. And you can usually watch them
onYouTube.com, too.
Try to listen to English music when you're in your car,
when you're onine, orwhen you're cooking. The more
you listen, the more you learn.
