WE ARE SAME

Give me wings to fly

In the blue open sky

Breaking shackles of hatred

That made me toxic and frustrated

I am also a creation of God

Innocent like him, ‘ O, Good Lord!

Then why my freedom is caged

I can seldom see through the bars of rage

I may be dark, You fair

None is inferior should be in the air

We are equal have no difference

Come together to uproot ignorance

Make the hearts fertile with empathy

Sweeping away fury and melancholy

Let no heart remain barren without care

In the pride of power and chair

No one is low no one is high

We are sharing the same sky

Break rules of being superior 

Map the distance to stay merrier

OPEN YOUR DOOR TO THE WORLD WITH ENGLISH

 

As we know, English is the language that connects people from different regions, cultures, and nations. Though not intended, it is a common language gifted to the world by the British, which has helped the world share information quickly and precisely without translation. Moreover, English is a worldwide spoken and accepted language, so language is no longer a barrier for people to settle in other countries.

Speaking English allows an individual to broaden his world, from job opportunities to relate to people from every country. Though English originated in Great Britain, its versions change across nations in which it is spoken.

India, too, has contributed a good number of words to the modern English language, which are presently included in standard dictionaries.

English knowledge is an essential employability skill, the most commonly used language in the corporate world. Using it efficiently in both written and oral is vital for one’s professional growth. But, unfortunately, mere domain knowledge won’t guarantee one a good job. It is observed that people voting for regional languages for communication over English believe that English is not a need as long as they communicate effectively to get their job done. The reality is that the companies consider the candidate’s ability or inability to speak fluently in English as a primary selection criterion.

Proficiency in English does not mean only the ability to make grammatically correct sentences. It also requires other related skills for effective communication like convincing skills, presentation skills, negotiation skills, and interpersonal skills. In addition, it is an imperative language online, with more than half the content on the internet written in English.

It is the language used for official communication, whether meeting within or outside, presentations, training conferences, letters, documents, reports, etc.

Gleaning new words day in, day out is an excellent way to widen vocabulary. Keep adding words to your repository. Learning the proper pronunciation of words is essential for excelling in conversations. Be confident and speak as often as possible to as many people as you possibly can! Do not be shy making mistakes! The more you practice, the better and more confident you will become in your pronunciation and vocabulary.

So, polish your skill of expressing yourself in English and open your door to the world.
