Step Two - MAKING SHORT SENTENCES
As I mentioned before, the first step in learning a new language is pronunciation. While you are doing that or right after you are done with the sounds of letters and letter combinations in words, use the words you have learned in very short basic sentences.
In order to do that, you need a verb or two. (I always start with I am and I have. I like to learn there is, too.) Then all the nouns and adjectives you have learned during the pronunciation phase can be used.
Imagine that you are learning English for the first time and that you are practicing the sound of "y" in different words, such as yellow, young, silly, joy, ...
You can start making short sentences:
I am yellow.
I am young.
I am silly.
I have joy.
There is joy.
And if you have already learned other sounds/words, like book, cat, dog, and pen, you can make many more sentences. Maybe you can investigate how to write a noun with an adjective and then use the adjectives young, silly, and yellow with these nouns as well.
Learning a language becomes more fascinating once sentences are created.
