words you don't need to know big words simple words are enough just try to say what you want people will understand when I started I was scared people might laugh at me but I learned that if I don't speak I can't get better so I spoke anyway most people were kind and helped me if you feel nervous that's okay take a deep breath smile and start talking it gets easier every time another way to learn is by reading out loud when you read your brain gets used to words it's like exercise the more you do
