Let's Learn English - Level 1
Learning Strategies are the thoughts and actions that help make learning easier or more effective.
The learning strategy for this lesson isSubstitute. Thatmeans using one thing instead of another. In using English, if you can't think of a word, you can use a phrase that means the same thing. Let's say you cannot remember the word "huge." You can say "very, very big" instead and communicate the same meaning. Or, you can use a gesture with your arms out to your side. Gestures are another way to substitute when communicating in your second language.

How about you? Do you ever substitute in speaking English?
