The correct pronunciation in English is the subject of the body. The main parts of the human body in English

It turns out that in order to teach a child how the parts of the body are called on English language, you need very little.

First, choose which words we need

Eye - eye - - [ay];
Nose - nose - - [nouz];
Mouth - mouth - - [mouse];
Cheek - cheek - - [chi: k];
Eyebrow - eyebrow - [ˈaɪbrau] - [aybrau];
Eyelash - eyelash - [ˈaɪlæʃ] - [ˈaylash];
Beard - beard - - [bied];
Language - tongue - tongue - [tang];
Forehead - forehead - [ˈfɔrɪd] - [ˈforid];
Ear - ear - [ɪə] - [ie];
Neck - neck - - [neck];
Shoulder - shoulder - [ˈʃəuldə] - [ˈsheulde];
Finger - finger - [ˈfɪŋɡə] - [ˈfinge];
Belly - stomach - [ˈstʌmək] - [ˈstamek];
Knee - knee - - [none];
Waist - waist - - [waist];
Back - back - - [back].

Now we need to make the process of learning English words for the baby interesting and bright.

What needs to be done so that the child remembers "Parts of the Body" in English?

1. Show each part of the body on yourself, and then on the baby. It is better to start with the face, having learned 3-4 names, then, each time adding 2-3 new words.

2. If the child remembers the words, move on to simple sentences:
- It's a nose (touch your nose).
What's this? -It's a nose. (touch baby's nose)

It’s a mouth (we circle the mouth along the contour without touching).
These are eyes (we touch our eyes, then the baby).
There are ears. (touch ears) One ear, two ear.

3. Swipe fun game"Who is faster?"
— Touch your eyes!
— Touch your mouth!
— Touch your ears!
Repeat faster and faster each time. True, only if the baby is no longer confused.

4. We complicate the game and call it "Confusion".
- Touch your nose. (touch eyes)
Touch your eyes. (touch nose)

If the kid has learned the words, give him the opportunity to be a commander. Let him give orders, and you - execute.

5. In parallel with these games, it would be nice to gradually learn the song "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes", which will help you easily learn some "Body Parts" in English

7. Watch videos and cartoons in English on the topic "Body Parts", which will help you figure out the correct pronunciation of words:


Body Parts

Parts of the body are the first thing a child feels with his skin, the first thing he wants to touch and what he wants to learn how to control. When the mother picks up the baby, he feels her hands, presses against her. He looks at her face, studies its features. When he learns to control his hands, he begins to study first his fingers, then his legs, stomach, face, etc. He also touches and visually studies the body parts and facial features of mom, dad and other close people.

Therefore, let's start learning nouns in English from body parts. They are easy to explain without translation, you can simply point to these parts of the body in yourself, your child, animals and toys.

  • For proper use of the materials, please read
  • To properly prepare your child for lessons, read
  • Don't skip topics, do them one by one. But it is possible and desirable to periodically return to the topics covered.
  • Use language transition rituals to start every class right. You can read about them in the Introductory Lessons.
  • If you yourself are just starting to learn this language, then it will be useful for you to read

Tasks

Tasks can be done in any order, combined with each other.

#1 The most important task in this thread

In this topic, the child is most important to master:

  • construction This is ... (It is ...) / These are ... (this ...)
  • the use of possessive pronouns my - my / my / mine)
  • plural formation of nouns

An explanation of these structures can be found in quick reference by grammar.

Your task is to name your child and his body parts, as well as parts of the body of his toys with the appropriate pronouns.

Example:

1. Show on yourself:

  • This is my leg (this is my leg)
  • These are my legs (these are my legs)
  • I raise my leg (I raise my leg)

2. Show on male toy:

  • This is his leg (this is his leg)
  • These are his legs (these are his legs)
  • He raises his legs (he raises his leg)

3. Show on female toy:

  • This is her leg (this is her leg)
  • These are her legs (these are her legs)
  • She raises her leg (she raises her leg)

4. Show on both toys:

  • These are their legs (these are their legs)
  • They raise their legs (they raise their legs)

5. Show on the child:

  • This is your leg (this is your leg)
  • These are your legs (this is your leg)
  • You raise your leg (you raise your leg)

6. Show on yourself and the child:

  • These are our legs (these are our legs)
  • We raise our legs (we raise our legs)

Repeat the same for other parts of the body. Make everything fun! Move actively. Otherwise, it will be a very boring task for the child.

№2

Tell your child phrases from templates, combining various words. Speak whole phrases, not individual words ("It's my hand", not just "hand"). Be sure to follow the words positive emotions and actions. Show your body parts, show the body parts of a child, as well as body parts of toys. Encourage him to repeat the movements after you. Don't translate anything. Repeat each phrase several times. It is not necessary to use all phrases and words in one lesson. One such task should last no more than 3 minutes, then finish the lesson or move on to any other task. Use toys, make skits and mini-dialogues with them.

An example of a dialogue (when the toy speaks, change your voice and facial expressions, move the toy):

  • — Touch my left hand
  • - It is your left hand (a toy or you show your left hand or the left hand of a toy)
  • — Touch my right hand
  • — It is your right hand(toy or you show your left hand or the left hand of the toy)

Then turn to the child. If he does not understand, then repeat this action with a toy.

№3

See pictures depicting people and animals (you can watch large family photos). It will be good if the pictures or photographs are funny or will evoke positive memories in the child. Show parts of the body and face, name them. Repeat each phrase, view the same pictures or photos several times.

Example:

  • This is a nose. (This is nose)
  • This is his handThis is his hand)
  • This is my leg.(This is my leg)
  • This is your head.This is yours head)

№4

You can mold a man from plasticine or draw on paper, and then show his body parts. The man must be funny. Make it very fat and very large (call it He is big / He is small), very high and very low (He is tall / He is low), very thick and very thin (He is thick / He is thin). Blind the leg and attach it in place of the head, shake your head and attach it in place (Is it his head? Oh, no! It is his leg!). Any absurdity will amuse your child, and at the same time cause him the necessary associations for memorizing words.

№5

Read any verse to the child and perform the necessary movements in the text. Show body parts according to the text in the rhyme. You can hum every rhyme to any tune. Repeat the verse several times at one time. Connect toys to the game. Let them also perform movements, show their body parts.

Find the lyrics below. Some verses are repeated from last topic. But this only makes the learning process easier for you and your child.

№6

Watch the video, sing along (even if only those words that you know) and perform the movements.

№7

Play the games listed at the end of this topic

New vocabulary

  • you should know these new words before starting classes with your child
  • You can learn words not all words at once, but in groups of 3-5 words, and gradually add them over several days
  • The last column shows transcription in Russian letters as a hint, but I draw your attention to the fact thatRussian letters cannot convey everyone English sounds . In particular: interdental [s] and [z] (when written th), English [p], nasal [n] (when written ng) and special English vowels. Therefore, if you still do not read English well, be sure to first read )

Grammar Quick Reference

For parents who are starting to learn the language or who do not speak it well enough:

  • You need to master the following grammar rules

1. Good news! Plural nouns formed by simply adding the ending -s.

Bad news! Sometimes there are exceptions to this rule. But they are few, you just need to know them.

Exceptions to the words of this topic: tooth / teeth - tooth / teeth, hair / hair - hear (no plural)

2. Good news! In English actually no gender concept. Gender can only be determined by the context of the meaning of words in animate beings. At inanimate objects kind is not. Therefore, you do not need to decline pronouns and adjectives. Their forms never change, unlike the Russian language.

3. Bad news! In English, unlike Russian, there is a concept article. The article is such service words that are used with nouns to give them a sign of certainty or indefiniteness. There are only 2 articles in English indefinite a (an - this form is used before nouns beginning with a vowel) and defined the .

  • Indefinite article a (an) came from English word"one" (one), and literally means one of many. If for the first time you name an object that does not have special signs, then before the noun meaning this word, you need to say a. For example, This is a hand (This is a hand, one of two), This is a finger (this is a finger, one of 10). Accordingly, this article is used only with singular nouns.
  • Definite article the comes from the English word "this" (that), and literally means this one. If you single out a specific object with certain characteristics, then the article the is used. For example, This is the left hand (This left hand, the left hand is one of a kind).

As can be seen from the examples, depending on the context, both articles can be used with the same nouns. If you are still confused and it is difficult for you to master this concept, which is not at all in your native Russian language, then you can use possessive pronouns before all the parts of the body that you call the child, then you do not need to use articles.

Example: This is my hand. This is your hand. This is my left hand. This is your left hand.

3. In the offer verb must always be present. It is impossible to say how in Russian without the verb "this is my hand." In English, this will literally sound like “this is my hand” - “It is my hand”. Or “I am big” - “I am big” (literally “I am big”)

4. Auxiliary verb to be(be)used in the absence of a semantic verb (“this is my hand” - “It is my hand”). Cconjugation of the verb to be in the simple present tense:

  • I am (short for I'm)
  • You are (abbreviated as You're)
  • He / she / it is (he's / she's / it's
  • We are (we're)
  • They are (they're)

5. Auxiliary verb to do(make)used in interrogative sentences with a semantic verb (What are you showing me? - What do you show me?). Cconjugation of the verb to do in the present simple:

  • I do
  • You do
  • He/she/it does
  • We do
  • They do

6. Word order in interrogative sentence : strict, you can’t change words in places. If you leave the word order as in the affirmative sentence and use only interrogative intonation, then the phrase will express surprise, not a question. The Englishman will not understand that you are asking him, he will think that you are simply surprised by some fact.

6.1 The question of clarification or about the ownership of the subject:

  1. auxiliary
  2. subject
  3. other parts of the proposal

Example: is this your hand? Is it your hand?

6.2. a question with a question word, but without a semantic verb:

  1. question word
  2. auxiliary
  3. subject
  4. other parts of the proposal

Example: Where is your hand? — Where is your hand?

6.3. Question with a question word and with a semantic verb:

  1. question word
  2. auxiliary
  3. subject
  4. semantic verb
  5. other parts of the proposal

Example: What are you showing me? What do you show me?

Rehearse each question separately. For each lesson with a child, one version of the question to consolidate the material. Run every time through every option maximum amount combinations of verbs and nouns you already know.

7. Features of the question "how much"

  • how many- used when asking about something that can be counted by the piece: how many hands do you have? How many hands do you have?
  • how much- is used when it is impossible to count by the piece, but you can say a lot or a little: how much time do you have (by piece it can only be hours or minutes, and time cannot be one or two, only little or a lot)? — how much tume do you have? how much money do you have (one piece can only have rubles or dollars, but money cannot be one or two, only a little or a lot)? How much money do you have?

8. Conjugation of the verb to have(to have) in simple present tense:

  • I have
  • You have
  • He/she/it has
  • We have
  • They have

Phrase Templates

  • You must master these phrase patterns and try to combine all the words from the list of new vocabulary according to their example.
  • You can use not all phrases at once, but gradually add phrases with new grammatical structures (for example, first simple affirmative sentences from the first and second person, then add the third person, then questions without interrogative words, and then questions with question words). While you are mastering one grammatical structure, you pass all new words through it in the game with the child so that you remember the grammatical structure.
  • If your child already knows how to count, you can enter the score already in this lesson. Count arms, legs, eyes, ears, etc. (one - one [one], two - two [tu], three - three [sri], four - four [fo], five - five [five], six - six [sis], seven - seven [seven], eight - eight [eit], nine - nine [nein], ten - ten [ten]). If your child can't count yet, don't use numbers in class just yet.

Games on this topic

1. If the child has already mastered the words and can name them, then show the parts of the body and ask them to name them in English.

What do I show you? What am I showing you

If the child only understands the words, but does not yet pronounce them, then call him body parts and ask them to show them.

Show me your left leg. Show me your left hand.

If he is wrong, he must perform some funny task. If he guesses correctly, then you are performing a funny task (for example, crow, croak, etc.)

Friends! Help make this site better! Write in the comments if you liked the lesson, what you want to change, add! Thank you!

When talking about ourselves, our appearance, at a doctor's appointment, when talking with friends, colleagues, buying clothes, we very often mention body parts. If you are learning English, then this topic should not be missed. Having mastered all the vocabulary, you will be able to travel without problems, visit shops abroad and, if necessary, seek medical help. So let's get started...

The question of where to start studying body parts in English puzzles many. It is best to start assimilation of the large components of our body, then consider each element in detail. We will present all the information in a table to make it easier for you to navigate.

External parts of the body

The main parts include, of course, large elements: torso, head, legs, arms. Each of them has components. How does it all sound in English? Interesting?

parts of body

A little bit of anatomy

When all the basic words on this topic are already familiar, then you can move on to the use cases.

Set expressions

Today I want to continue a series of articles about important groups of words. We offer to study the names of body parts in English. Many students admit that they know this topic superficially, only basic words, because their field of activity is not related to anatomy or medicine. But our life is so unpredictable: sometimes not knowing just one word in stressful situation could endanger someone else's life or your own.

When my close friend was vacationing in Europe, a very unpleasant incident happened to her. While walking, she stumbled and fell. The pain was very strong, they called an ambulance, only my friend did not know how to say "ankle" or "shin" on the phone. Fortunately, there was an English-speaking compatriot nearby who helped. But after this story, my friend can take the body parts test with her eyes closed.

And, of course, very often in a conversation we describe other people, their appearance and character. These are all cases in which knowledge of body parts in English will help you a lot.

Our body is made up of a body body), heads ( head), two hands ( two arms) and two legs ( two legs). We see with our eyes eyes), hear with ears ( ears), catch smells with the nose ( nose), eat with teeth ( teeth) located in the mouth ( mouth, lips - lips). When you are learning new words, it is best to work with pictures. We invite you to pronounce the words out loud and “apply” them to yourself, naming your (or someone else’s) body parts. And here are the pictures!

Idioms with body parts in English

We ourselves do not notice how often we use set expressions (idioms) in our speech. For example, phrases such as “ears on the top of your head”, “the soul has gone to the heels”, “sit back”, etc. are common. Set expressions should be known by heart, as they cannot be translated literally. All words in the phrase lose their original meaning, and the expression is translated by any phrase as a whole. They say about a man deeply in love he is head over heels in love(lit. “he has a head above his heels in love”). If someone promises something but does not deliver, use the expression lip service(lit. "lip services") - empty promises. When they say that the said information should be trusted, this means that it is from a reliable source - the horse's mouth(lit. "from the mouth of a horse"). And in case someone tries not to notice certain facts, they will definitely say that he looks at everything through his fingers - to turn a blind eye to(lit. "to turn with a blind eye to something").
