The Best Way To Improve Your Reading Skills 📖📚 English Tips!

Well hey there! I'm Emma from mmmEnglish!

Salutare! Sunt Emma, de la mmmEnglish!

Have your English teachers ever told you

Ti-a spus vreodata profesorul tau de Engleza

to read as much as you can in English?

sa citesti cat de mult poti in Engleza?

Have they told you that it's a great way

Ti-au spus ca este modul ideal

to build your vocabulary?

sa-ti construiesti vocabularul?

And to see how words are used in context

Si sa vezi cum sunt folosite cuvintele in context

in English?

in Engleza?

Well, I absolutely agree!

Ei bine, sunt total de acord!

But what can you do to improve your reading skills

Dar ce poti sa faci ca sa-ti imbunatatesti abilitatile de citire

in English so that you can

in Engleza si sa poti

become a better reader and actually

deveni un bun citit si chiar

start enjoying it?

sa inceapa sa-ti placa?

That is exactly what this lesson is all about!

Tocmai despre asta este vorba in lectia aceasta!

Now there are a ton

Acum sunt o multime

of benefits to reading English texts.

de beneficii pentru a citi texte in Engleza.

You're going to build your vocabulary, right?

Iti vei imbunatati vocabularul, nu-i asa?

As you learn new words.

Pe masura ce inveti cuvinte noi.

But you'll be learning those words

Dar vei invata acele cuvinte

together in chunks, right?

impreuna, pe bucati, corect?

Together in sentences

Impreuna in propozitii

so that you can learn how to use them correctly

ca sa poti invata cum sa le folosesti corect

and the words that they're often used with.

si cuvintele cu care se folosesc cel mai frecvent.

You'll also experience how words

Vei vede de asemenea cum cuvintele

express tone and feeling

exprima tonul si sentimentele

through the interactions between characters.

prin intermediul interactiunilor dintre personaje.

So tone in writing is the author's attitude

Asadar tonul in scris exprima atitudinea autorului

and this is an incredibly useful way to learn

si asta un mod incredibil de a invata

how to choose the right words to express

cum sa alegi cuvintele potrivite ca sa exprimi

feeling and emotion in English.

trairi de emotii in Engleza.

So my first question for you today is

Asadar, prima mea intrebare pentru tine astazi este,

do you like reading English texts?

iti place sa citesti texte in Engleza?

If your answer's yes,

Daca raspunsul tau este da,

what English text do you like to read?

ce texte in Engleza iti place sa citesti?

Or even better,

Sau chiar mai mult,

what English book are you reading right now?

ce carte in Engleza citesti chiar acum?

I'd love to see some recommendations

Mi-ar placea sa vad niste recomandari

in the comments so if you've got a good one,

in comentarii, daca ai una buna,

share it below!

impartaseste-o mai jos!

But if your answer to this question is no,

Dar daca raspunsul tau la aceasta intrebare este nu,

well why do you think that is?

de ce crezi ca se intampla asta?

Maybe you don't really love reading

Poate ca nu iti place sa citesti

even in your own native language.

chiar in propria ta limba.

Well then, reading in English is probably going to be

In acest caz, cititul in Engleza va fii probabil

even more painful, right?

chiar mai neplacut, corect?

But maybe you prefer watching movies or

Dar poate preferi sa te uita la un film sau

listening to podcasts - something like that.

sa asculti podcats-uri, ceva similar.

Perhaps you get frustrated because you feel like

Poate ca esti frustrat pentru ca te simti ca si cum

reading's a chore.

cititul este o povara.

And you really need to improve your skills

Si chiar ai nevoie sa-ti imbunatatesti abilitatile

before you can start actually enjoying reading.

inainte de incepe sa te bucuri de citit.

Fair enough!

Destul de corect!

Maybe you're an active person and you just don't like

Poate ca este o persoana activa careia nu-i place

sitting still and reading a book, right?

sa stea intr-un loc si sa citeasca, corect?

Well that's

Ei bine asta

not really an excuse because

nu-i chiar o scuza pentru ca

Audible allows you to listen to books wherever you are.

Audible iti da posibilitatea sa asculti carti oricunde te-ai afla.

I listen to my books now because

Si eu ascult carti acum pentru ca

I don't like to sit still either!

nici mie nu-mi place sa stau intr-un loc!

So I listen when I go for a run.

Asa ca ascult in timp ce alerg.

If you want to try listening to English books instead

in schimb daca vrei sa incerci sa asculti carti in Engleza

Before we get started, a little reminder

Inainte sa incepem, aminteste-ti

to turn on the subtitles if you need to - just down there.

pentru ca mai multe persoane sa le poata distribui si sa invete din ele.

as well!

So if you're up for the challenge to add

Daca este pregatit pentru provocarea de a adauga

subtitles in your native language,

subtitrari in limba ta nativa,

there's a link in the description that will

gasesti un link in descriere

help you to do that.

care sa te ajute sa o faci.

Your name's going to get shown

Numele tau va aparea

in the description too

deasemenea in descriere

as a thank you!

ca semn de multumire!

My first tip

Primul meu sfat

is to read more!

este sa citesti mai mult!

Alright that one might seem completely obvious

bine asta este destul de evident

but I had to say it!

dar trebuia sa o spun!

You're not going to improve your reading without

Nu voi putea sa-ti imbunatatesti cititul fara

reading, right?

sa citesti, corect?

That's the same for so many things in life, right?

Asta e valabil si pentru atat de multe lucruri in viata, nu-i asa?

The more you do it,

Cu cat o faci mai des

the easier it gets.

cu atat iti va fi mai usor.

Now this might take you a little effort at first, right?

Asta va fi un mic efort pentru inceput, nu-i asa?

To get to that point, you might need to say to yourself:

Ca sa ajungi acolo, va trebui sa-ti spui:

Alright every day,

In regula, in fiecare zi,

at six o'clock in the evening, I'm going to spend

la ora 6 sera, voi petrece

fifteen minutes reading.

15 minune citind.

So you do it every night.

Deci faci asta in fiecare seara.

You know what they say? It takes

Stii cum se spune?

twenty-one days to make something a habit, right?

Iti ia 21 de zile sa faci din orice un obicei, corect?

So if you do it consistently

Deci faci asta constant

for twenty-one days

pentru 21 de zile

you'll have a good chance of bringing

vei avea mari sanse

daily reading practice into your life.

sa aduci rutina cititului in viata ta.

And it can help

Si poate sa te ajute

you know, to create a little ritual

sa-ti creezi un ritual

around the activity, so

in jurul activitatii,

do it on the train on the way to work or

deci fa-o in tren, in drum spre munca sau

go and lie in the sunshine.

du-te si stai intins la rasarit.

That's what I do!

Asta-i ce faci tu!

I've got a couple of Spanish readers

Am cativa cititori spanioli

and I always go down to the beach and practise there

si mereu ma duc pe plaja si exersez

and it is so relaxing,

si este foarte relaxant,

it's one of my favourite times of day.

e partea mea preferata din zi.

Now there's a good chance that you're thinking:

Este o mare posibilitate sa te gandesti:

But what should I read?

Dar ce ar trebui sa citesc?

Well

Ei bine....

choose what you read carefully.

alegeti ceea ce citesti cu grija.

The easy part of this decision is just choosing

Cea mai usoara parte a aceste decizii este sa alegi

topic or a genre that you like, right?

un subiect sau un gen care-ti place, asa-i?

If you love reading

Daca iubesti sa citesti

soppy, romantic novels

romane de dragoste siropoase

- do it!

fa-o!

Quit thinking that something has to be educational

Nu te mai gandi ca trebuie sa fie ceva educational

for you to learn, right? It's just not true.

pentru ca tu sa inveti, asa-i? Nu e adevarat.

If you love reading comics,

Daca iubesti sa citesti comedii,

that's fine too!

e de asemenea bine!

Well, try and choose a comic that's got

Ei bine incearca sa alegi o comedie,

a little more text in it, right? A little more reading.

are un pic mai mult text, asa-i? Citesti un pic mai mult.

Or choose one of those really awesome illustrated

Sau incearca una dintre cartile acelea minunat ilustrate

books for teenagers, I've made some recommendations

pentru adolescenti, am facut cateva recomandari

in the comments below

in comentariile de mai jos.

But the story lines in those books,

Dar firul povestii in aceste carti,

in those types of books, are often

in acest tip de carti, sunt adesea

fun and entertaining and there's images that help you

distractive si amuzante iar imaginile te ajuta

to kind of engage in the story as well.

sa intri deasemenea in actiune.

It's going to make your reading practice much less

Va face din exercitiul tau de citit

of a chore, right?

o povara mai usoara, asa-i?

Nobody wants to drag themselves through a book

Nimeni nu vrea sa se chinuie cu o carte

or a novel - a massive novel.

sau un roman - un roman mare.

Especially one that they don't like.

In special unul pe care nu-l plac.

Or that's boring, right?

Asta-i plictisitor, corect?

There's just so much material out there

Este atata material

for you to read that there is absolutely no reason

pentru tine sa citesti incat nu ai niciun motiv

to be reading something that you're not into, right?

sa citesti ceva care nu te atrage.

Pick something that interests you,

Alege ceva ce te intereseaza,

whether it's the sports section of the newspaper or a

chiar daca este numai sectiunea de sport dintr-un ziar

mystery novel or

sau un roman misterios

a nonfiction book about plants,

sau o carte de non-fictiune despre plante,

it doesn't matter at all.

chiar nu conteaza deloc.

But what does matter is that you enjoy

Ceea ce conteaza este sa iti placa

what you're reading so that it encourages

ceea ce citesti si sa te incurajeze

you to do it more, right?

sa faci mai mult, corect?

One really common problem that I see

O problema des intalnita pe care o vad

among my students is that they're

printre elevii mei este ca ei sunt

too ambitious with their reading material, right?

prea ambitiosi in legutura cu materialul pe care-l citesc.

A pre-intermediate student reading Jane Austen novels,

Un elev de nivel mediu citind romanele lui Jane Austin

I mean, I think that's really a form of torture.

adica, ma gandesc sa este intr-adevar o forma de tortura.

Right? 'Pride and Prejudice' has extremely

Corect? "Mandrie si prejudecata"

advanced vocabulary and

are un vocabular extrem de avansat

sarcasm and

si sarcasm

complex sentence structures.

si o structura complexa a propozitiilor.

It could be really hard work to try and get to the

Este o treaba foarte grea sa incerci

end of a book like that.

sa termini o carte ca asta.

So you need to be

Asa ca trebuie

looking at texts that are the right level for you,

sa te uiti la texte care au nivelul potrivit pentyru tine,

that help you to get through them.

care sa te ajute sa le parcurgi.

And if you're a Jane Austen fan,

Daca esti fan Jane Austin,

well, I've got some recommendations in the description

ei bine... am cateva recomandari in descrierea de mai jos

because her novels are so popular that they've been

pentru ca romanele ei sunt foarte populare

adapted for teenage readers

au fost adaptate pentru cititori adolescenti

and intermediate level students as well,

si pentru elevi de nivel mediu

so this could be perfect for you.

deci poate fii perfect si pentru tine.

I'm going to add the link in the description.

Voi adauga un link in descriere.

And to be completely honest, the vocabulary

Si ca sa fiu sincera, vocabularul

in books written for teenagers and younger people is

in cartile pentru adolescenti si tineri sunt

usually extremely useful for everyday English use, right?

de obicei extrem de folositoare pentru Engleza de zi cu zi, corect?

So don't let your ego get in the way between you and

Asa ca nu lasa ego-ul sa stea intre tine si

a fantastic read, right?

o lectura fantastica, bine?

Now I also want to mention to be

Deasemenea vreau sa mentionez

true to yourself here.

sa fii sincer cu tine aici.

If you just can't stand reading pages and pages

Daca chiar nu poti sa citesti pagini dupa pagini

of text in a novel,

de text intr-un roman,

that's cool!

este in regula!

Read a daily blog post instead or a magazine article.

Citeste in schimb un blog zilnic sau un acticol de revista.

It really doesn't matter what you read,

Chiar nu conteaza ce citesti,

as long as you're enjoying it.

atata timp cat iti face placere.

Now if you like to read but you don't want to lug around

Acum, daca iti place sa citesti dar nu vrei sa cari

a notebook or a dictionary with you,

un carnetel sau un dictionar dupa tine,

then an e-reader is a really good option, right?

atunci un e-reader este o solutie foarte buna, bine?

I just have Kindle downloaded on my phone

Eu am carti Kindle descarcate in telefon

so all of my books come with me everywhere that I go.

asa ca toate cartile mele ma insotesc oriunde as fi.

And this makes your practice really easy, right?

Si asta iti face exercitiul foarte usor, bine?

You've got books with you all the time.

Ai carti cu tine tot timpul.

And the cool thing is that e-readers help you to translate

Si chestia foarte buna este ca e-reader-urile te ajuta sa traduci

words or things really simply, just by

cuvinte si chestii foarte simplu,

touching the word on the screen.

la simpla apasare a cuvantului pe ecran.

So that could be a good option and make it a little

Asta poate sa fie o solutie buna sa-ti

easier to get into a reading practice.

fie mai usor incepi sa exersezi cititul.

As I've mentioned,

Asa cum am mai mentionat

I've got a list of book recommendations

am o lista de recomandari

in the description below

in descrierea de mai jos

and if you still don't know what to read,

si daca tot nu vrei sa citesti,

then here's another one of my favourite tips.

am un alt sfat preferat.

Read a book that you've already read

Citeste o carte pe care ai mai citit-o

in your own language.

in limba ta materna.

Right? Reading a book that you've already read once

Bine? Sa citesti o carte de care ai mai citi-o o data

or even a few times in your own language

sau poate de mai multe ori in limba materna

can eliminate a lot of the hard work,

poate sa elimine mult din munca grea,

painful work,

munca dureroasa,

when you're reading a book in English, right?

atunci cand citesti o carte in Engleza, bine?

Firstly, you already know that you'll like the book, right?

In primul rand, tu stii deja ca iti place cartea, corect?

And secondly, you don't have to worry about

Si in al doilea rand, nu trebuie sa-ti faci griji

misunderstanding something or words that you're

ca nu ai inteles ceva sau un cuvant

unsure of, it doesn't mean that you have to stop reading

de care nu esti sigur, nu inseamna ca trebuie sa te opresti din citit

and look them up so that you understand

si sa te uiti ca sa poti sa intelegi

the story, right?

posvestea, coresct?

You'll be able to fill in the gaps

Vei putea umple golurile

in your understanding

din intelegerea ta

from your previous knowledge.

prin cunostintele tale anterioare.

So since you already know the story,

Deci pentru ca deja stii povestea,

you won't get stuck on the details, right?

nu te voi bloca in detalii, bine?

You'll be able to focus on learning

Voi putea sa te concentrezi pe invatarea

new words and expressions

de noi cuvinte si expresii

without having to look up all of the in-between words

fara sa trebuiasca sa te uiti la toate cuvintele

which is really great for morale.

ceea ce este foarte bine pentru moral.

And generally just makes the experience

Si in general face experienta

a bit more enjoyable

un pic mai placuta

which is what we're all about!

caci despre asta este vorba!

And you don't have to get stuck on the details.

Si nu te voi bloca in detalii.

It's great to test yourself and to look up words

Este bine sa te testezi si sa te uiti dupa cuvinte

and to read out loud sometimes.

si sa citesti cu voce tare cateodata.

If you try to understand every single word in the book,

Daca incerci sa intelegi fiecare cuvant din carte,

you might never finish it, right?

s-ar putea sa nu mai termini, corect?

It's going to be a lot of work to get there.

Iti va lua foarte mult timp.

You know, you want to make sure that you understand

Stii, vrei sa te asiguri ca intelegi

the main story line,

actiunea principala,

and if you aren't sure of a word or two,

si daca nu este sigur de un cuvant sau doua,

but you understand the general idea of the sentence,

dar intelegi ideea generala a frazei,

then you can try and guess the meaning of the word

atunci poti sa incerci sa ghicesti intelesul cuvantului

and move on, you don't have to know

si sa treci mai departe, nu trebuie sa stii

absolutely everything!

absolut tot!

And that's true, even when I read books in English,

Si asta-i adevarat, chiar si cand citesc carti in Engleza

there will be words that I don't recognise or

vor fii cuvinte pe care nu le recunosc sau

words that I don't use that often,

cuvinte pe care nu le folosesc atat de des,

words that are used by Americans that we don't

cuvinte care sunt folosite de americani pe care noi nu

really use that much here,

le folosim atat de des aici,

but I don't have to stop and look up the meaning

dar nu trebuie sa ma opresc si sa caut intelesul

of every word.

pentru fiecare cuvant.

I just, you know,

Numai, stii tu

read through the story, try to piece it together.

citesc printre randuri, incerc sa le pun cap la cap.

Unless it's something that is really, really, crucial

Numai daca este ceva intr-adevar crucial

or important to the story,

sau important pentru poveste,

I don't need to know the exact meaning.

nu trebuie sa stiu intelesul exact.

Now for you as an English learner,

Acum, pentru tine care inveti Engleza,

if there are too many unknown words on the page,

daca sunt prea multe cuvinte pe care nu le intelegi dintr-o pagina,

and you really don't have a good idea of

si chiar nu ai idee

what's happening in the story,

ce se intampla in poveste

then it's possible that this text is too advanced for you.

atunci e posibil ca acel text sa fie prea avansat pentru tine.

So try reading something with less unknown words first.

Asa ca prima data, incearca sa citesti ceva cu mai putine cuvinte necunoscute.

Right? If a word seems really important

Bine? Daca un cuvant pare foarte important

or really interesting,

sau foarte interesant,

but you've still got a bit of an idea of what's

dar tot ai o idee despre

going on in the story,

ce se intampla in poveste,

then just circle it

atunci, doar incercuiete-l

and move on, you can come back to it

si treci mai departe, poti sa te intorci la el

and look it up later.

si sa verifici mai tarziu.

Don't let it stop you.

Nu-l lasa sa te opreasca.

Okay so the first tips that we went through

Bine, deci primele sfaturi peste care am trecut

will help you to get started, I want you to just

te vor ajuta sa incepi, vreau ca tu

commit to reading and

sa-ti iei angajamentu sa citesti si

to dive into a book and to really just focus on enjoying

te cufunzi intr-o carte si sa te concentrezi sa te bucuri

the journey. As we said before,

de calatorie. Asa cum am mai spus,

reading in general is already going to be

cititul in general

improving your English skills, right?

iti va imbunatatii abilitatile de a citi in Engleza, corect?

But if you want to take a more proactive

Dar daca vrei sa fii proactiv

approach to reading,

in legatura cu cititul,

then the next few tips are going to help you to push

atunci urmatoarele cateva sfaturi te vor ajuta aprofundezi

your English skills a little further.

un pic mai mult abilitatile tale in Engleza

Read out loud.

Citeste cu voce tare.

One of the most effective ways to learn

Una dintre cele mai eficiente modalitati de a invata

anything is to combine different styles of learning

orice este sa combini diferite stiluri de invatare

right? This is how we supercharge learning.

corect? Asa aprofundam invatarea.

So for example, if you are reading something

De exemplu, daca citesti ceva

while listening to it,

in timp ce si asculti,

so choosing your favourite book and then

deci alegand cartea ta preferata si apoi

finding it on Audible.

sa o gasesti si pe Audible.

Audible's got over two hundred thousand books there so

Audible are peste 200.000 de carti

the chances of you finding your favourites is pretty high.

sansele sa gasesti cartea preferata sunt destul de mari.

But then you could take it one step further. Read it

Dar daca ai putea sa faci un pas inainte. Citeste-o

while you're listening to it

in timp ce o asculti

and say the words at the same time.

si spune cuvintele in acelasi timp.

Doing all of this is supercharging your learning.

Facand toate astea iti aprofundezi invatarea.

There are so many good things that are happening

Se intampla atatea lucruri bune

here at once. Your mind's taking in information

deodata. Mintea ta primeste informatii

in multiple ways,

in multe feluri,

your muscles in your mouth are remembering how to

muschii din gura ta isi amintesc

pronounce or how to make the sounds correctly

cum se pronunta sau cum sa scoti un sunet corect

because you're listening to them at the same time.

pentru ca tu asculti in acelasi timp.

Now this might not be the best option if you are

Asta s-ar putea sa nu fie cea mai buna solutie daca tu

reading in a quiet library or on a bus on the way to work,

citesti intr-o librarie linistita sau in autobuz in drum spre munca,

that kind of thing. But you'll find a way to make it work!

chestii din astea. Dar vei gasi tu o solutie sa mearga!

I'm sure of it.

Sunt sigura.

My last tip is to test yourself.

Ultimul meu sfat este sa te testezi.

I've given you quite a few tips already today

Ti-am dat deja cateva sfaturi astazi

but I want to give you a tip that's going to help you

dar vreau sa-ti dau unul care sa te ajute

take your reading from pleasure into study.

sa faci cititul din placere studiu.

And there's a time and a place for this, right?

Si este timp si pentru asta, corect?

Sometimes we just want to relax and unwind,

Cateodata vrem doar sa ne relaxam

but other times you might be ready to like

dar alte dati cand vei vrea

roll up your sleeves and really dive in and understand

sa-ti sufleci manecile si sa intelegi

how the language is being used.

cum a fost folosita limba.

So when you're in the mood,

Asa ca atunci cand ai chef,

test yourself.

testeaza-te

Even if you're not reading next to a teacher

Chiar daca nu citesti langa un profesor

it doesn't mean that you can't pause

asta nu inseamna ca nu poti sa te opresti

to ask yourselves questions about the text

si sa-ti pui intrebari despre text

and check that you've understood it correctly, right?

si sa verifici, daca l-ai inteles corect, asa-i?

So

Deci

one way to do this is to open a book at a random page,

o modalitate sa faci asta este sa deschizi o carte la o pagina oarecare

read a paragraph,

citesti un paragraf,

close the book,

inchizi cartea,

write down some of the key points that you remember

scrii cateva dintre ideile cheie pe care ti le amintesti

from that paragraph

din paragraf

and then go back and study it in detail.

si apoi te intorci si studiezi in detaliu.

Did you miss anything important?

Ai pierdut ceva important?

This is a really good way to practise

Astai o modalitate buna de a exersa

your comprehension skills,

abilitatile tale de intelegere

even if you're on your own,

chiar daca este de unul singur,

it is possible for you to do this.

este posibil sa faci asta.

There might be a word

Poate fi un cuvant

that you've not have heard of before.

pe care nu l-ai mai auzit inainte.

You don't know the meaning of it.

Nu ii stii intelesul.

But instead of looking it up straight away,

Dar in loc sa te uiti imediat,

look at the words around it and try and guess

te uiti la cuvintele din jur si incerci sa ghicesti

what the meaning is before you check.

intelesul inainte sa verifici.

Maybe you know the word,

Poate ca stii cuvantul,

but you haven't seen it used in that context before, right?

dar nu l-ai mai vazut inainte folosit in acel context, corect?

So look it up.

Asa ca verifica.
