English Proficiency for Communicative Language

               
                  This month of October is the celebration of the English Olympics and the theme is ‘’English Proficiency for Communicative Language’’.Language proficiency or linguistic proficiency is the ability of an individual to speak or perform in an acquired language. As theories vary among pedagogues as to what constitutes proficiency, there is little consistency as to how different organizations classify it. Additionally, fluency and language competence are generally recognized as being related, but separate controversial subjects.
                   In predominant frameworks in the United States, proficient speakers demonstrate both accuracy and fluency, and use a variety of discourse strategies. Thus, native speakers of a language can be fluent without being considered proficient.Communicative language is an approach to the  second and foreign languages that emphasizes interaction as both the means and the ultimate goal of learning a language. It is also referred to as “communicative approach to the teaching of foreign languages” or simply the “communicative approach”.                   As a simple citizen of the world, I, myself is very observant to my fellow Filipino citizens. They can’t speak well in English and others don’t  use it correctly  or in a more austere words, people have it been shortcut , English carabao and jejemon, which were not accepted in formal English.We should love to use and speak English as our own native ones.  We can use English , as the international language in any part of the world , anytime and anywhere.
