SHAWS ADVICE TO
FOREIGNERS
In the last section, Shaw advises foreigners on how to
communicate in English while travelling in English speaking
countries.
Shaw tells that its not necessary for foreign students to learn
English who intend to travel in England and wish to be
understood there, they must not try to speak English
perfectly, because if they do, no one will understand them.
He specifically tells that there is no such thing as perfectly
correct English, there is presentable English which is called
good English, but in London nine hundred and ninety-nine
out of every thousand people not only speak bad English but
speak even that very badly.
Therefore the first thing a foreigner has to do is to speak with
a strong foreign stress, and speak broken English, that is
English without grammar. Then every English person to
whom he speaks will know that he is a foreigner and will try
to understand him and help him.
is presentable English.
The only way to perfect your speech is by trying to
speak with a strong accent and broken English-which
is English without grammar.
The manner of speaking of one is different in different
circumstances- family , office and socializing with
friends are different situations where one speaks
distinctly different from the other.
The important thing is to get the listener to
understand what you are saying rather than using
perfect English and the person remaining clueless.
Being a foreigner, speaking perfectly to a native would
also feel a little insulting if the native seems not to
now his own language that well.
SIGNIFICANCE IN TODAYS

George Bernard Shaw insults that the native speakers of English
that is the British, they cannot understand their own language.
No two British people speak exactly the same.
Indians should realize the true sense of the language.
So it is very important in todays time that we emphasize on
speaking correct English rather than good English.
CONCLUSION
In todays modern world the speech
