Learning common English phrases and expressions is more useful for fluency than memorizing long lists of vocabulary: | |||
- Study idioms, phrasal verbs, and collocations | |||
- Learn chunks of language that native speakers use frequently | |||
- Practice using these phrases in context through speaking and writing | |||
This helps you sound more natural and fluent in conversation6<ref name="ref7">7</ref>. | |||

Listening comprehension is crucial for fluent communication: | |||
- Listen to a variety of English accents and speaking styles | |||
