Why is English so difficult? Because English is a patchwork language, assembled like Frankenstein's monster from the remains of other languages – German, French, Latin, Greek, and more. This explains the silent letters, inconsistent spelling, and rare sounds that frustrate learners worldwide.
Why do we have silent letters in knife and lamb? Why does ough sound different in through, tough, cough, and bough? The answer lies in English's turbulent linguistic history.
Picture this: In a laboratory, a scientist stitches together parts from different corpses and brings his creation to life. The result? A powerful creature assembled from disparate pieces that grows beyond its creator's control. Sound familiar? That's essentially how English developed.
Like Frankenstein's monster, English is a patchwork creature assembled from other languages' remains. And like the fictional creation, it has grown beyond anyone's expectations, dominating the global business world. But English bears the scars of its violent assembly – explaining why our students find it so beautifully, maddeningly complex.

The origins of the English language are truly fascinating and diverse, but here’s a quick breakdown for context:
The Germanic Bones: Anglo-Saxon settlers provided English with its skeletal structure – basic grammar and everyday words like house, water, love, and work. These Germanic bones still support everything we say.
The Norman French Organs: The 1066 Norman Conquest performed major surgery, transplanting thousands of French words. English suddenly had sophisticated vocabulary for government (parliament, justice), culture (art, literature), and cuisine (dinner, sauce).
The Latin Blood: Latin flows through English veins via legal terms (contract, liability), academic language (university, professor), and formal vocabulary.
The Greek Brain: For scientific thinking, English borrowed Greek neural pathways: telephone, democracy, psychology, technology.
Modern Transplants: English continues evolving, accepting transplants from dozens of languages – entrepreneur (French), kindergarten (German), tsunami (Japanese). Dutch maritime expertise gave English essential sailing vocabulary: yacht (jacht), skipper (schipper), deck (dek), cruise (kruisen), plus everyday words like landscape (landschap), cookie (koekje), and boss (baas).
Understanding why English is difficult requires traveling through Britain's turbulent history – repeated invasions that each scarred the language.
Celtic Foundation (Pre-55 BC): Celtic tribes spoke languages related to modern Welsh and Irish. Few Celtic words survived in English, mainly in place names: Thames, Dover, London.
Roman Occupation (43-410 AD): Four centuries of Roman rule planted Latin seeds: street (Latin strata), wall (vallum), wine (vinum).
Anglo-Saxon Settlement (5th-6th centuries): Germanic tribes – Angles, Saxons, Jutes – brought the language that became English. They provided core grammar and vocabulary: be, have, go, come, good, bad. Crucially, they brought the distinctive "th" sound that challenges modern learners.
Viking Raids (8th-11th centuries): Scandinavian Vikings settled northern England. Their Old Norse blended with Anglo-Saxon, giving us sky, egg, knife, husband, they. Old Norse reinforced the "th" sound while other Germanic languages lost it – explaining why English learners struggle with sounds that barely exist elsewhere.
The Norman Conquest (1066): Here's where our Frankenstein story turns dramatic. William the Conqueror's victory didn't just change politics – it performed linguistic surgery. For 300 years, French dominated the ruling class while Anglo-Saxon remained the language of the “common people.” This created a linguistic class system haunting English today:
Germanic words sound direct and earthy (ask, help, start); French-Latin words sound formal (inquire, assist, commence). Business English ranges from folksy to fancy – we can choose between medieval peasants' and nobles' vocabulary.
Then English traveled to America and developed further:
American English preserved features closer to Shakespeare's pronunciation than modern British English. Americans still pronounce "r" in father and water (as Shakespeare did), while British English dropped this in the 18th century.
However, neither modern American nor British English sounds like Shakespeare's – both evolved significantly since the 1600s. There's no living museum of Elizabethan English anywhere.
How did this patchwork monster become the global business language?
Understanding English as Frankenstein's monster explains why English is difficult:
This linguistic creature, assembled from centuries of contact and conquest, became business history's most powerful communication tool. It's stitched together from different languages, but like Frankenstein's creation, English developed its own life and intelligence.
This Halloween, embrace the monster. Yes, English is frustratingly inconsistent – but it's our global language. Understanding its chaotic history makes working with it less maddening, more fascinating. When you know why English behaves this way, you stop fighting the monster and start working with it.
Happy Halloween from The English Center! May your business English be monstrously effective.
The story of Frankenstein is such a beloved classic that audiences are spoiled for choice when it comes to movie adaptations (and parodies)! Here's the trailer for the 1931 film with Boris Karloff:

Even experienced, confident professionals sometimes “lose their English” in high-stakes situations. The problem isn’t vocabulary or grammar – it’s the affective filter – a psychological theory that explains why stress, fear, and pressure can block fluency.
Understanding this filter, and learning to diminish its power, can be key to speaking with confidence in every setting: from presentations to board meetings to job interviews. This article is all about how to speak English with confidence under pressure.

In the 1980s, linguist Stephen Krashen introduced the concept of the affective filter. It’s not a literal mechanism in the brain but a construct — a way of explaining how emotions like anxiety, self-consciousness, and stress can block language performance.
“A high affective filter… prevents input from reaching the part of the brain responsible for language acquisition.”
— Principles and Practice in Second Language Acquisition, Krashen (1982)
In other words, the knowledge is there — but stress raises the filter and makes confident communication harder.
Today, researchers use terms like cognitive load and emotional regulation to describe the same phenomenon. Stress hormones such as cortisol interfere with working memory, which is critical for fluent speech.
“We feel, therefore we learn.”
— Immordino-Yang & Damasio (2007)
In business communication, this means that pressure can:
C-level leaders often experience a higher affective filter because:
This is why many confident professionals report: “I can speak fluently in casual settings, but in meetings or interviews, I freeze.”
The good news is that the filter can be lowered. Practical strategies include:
Your body sends signals to both your audience and your brain. By managing posture and movement, you can lower stress and project calm authority.
In short: by managing the body, you manage the mind. Confidence isn’t only in what you say — it’s in how you inhabit the space while saying it.
The affective filter is a construct, but its effects are very real. For confident professionals, the challenge is not language ability but performance under stress. By lowering the filter — through body management, rehearsal, and mental reframing — you unlock the fluency and confidence you already have.
At The English Center, we are not just English teachers — we are communication trainers who help professionals combine language skill with executive presence and confidence.
Even confident executives can struggle in high-stakes English situations — not because they lack skill, but because stress raises the affective filter, a construct that blocks fluency. To lower it: manage posture and body language, breathe, rehearse under realistic pressure, focus on clarity, and reframe nerves as energy. The result? More confidence, more impact, and communication that matches your leadership level.

75-90% of CVs get filtered out by Applicant Tracking Systems before reaching recruiters. These ATS friendly CV tips will help you beat the system and make your CV both ATS-compatible and human-friendly.

An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is software that many employers use to scan, sort, and rank resumes and CVs. Think of it as a digital gatekeeper that acts as the first filter between you and the recruiter. If your CV isn't ATS-friendly, it may never reach human eyes—even if you're a strong candidate.
The statistics are sobering:
Understanding how ATS technology works is crucial for optimization. Here's what happens behind the scenes:
Best choice: .docx (Microsoft Word) – safest for ATS parsing and universally accepted
PDF: Only if the job posting explicitly allows it. While PDFs keep formatting intact, some older ATS systems may not read them correctly.
Avoid: .pages, .odt, .rtf, or image-based PDFs — ATS may not read them properly.
Rule of thumb: Unless told otherwise, submit as .docx.
Your file name is part of your first impression. Recruiters often download CVs and resumes and share them internally—a clear, professional name ensures your document won't get lost. These ATS friendly CV tips include proper file naming.
Think of ATS alignment like SEO for your resume:

If you're applying for jobs internationally, you may notice two different terms: CV and resume. While they both describe a document that outlines your experience and qualifications, usage varies by location.
In Europe (and much of the world): The term "CV" (short for curriculum vitae) is standard.
In the United States and Canada: The term "resume" is preferred. It serves the same purpose as a European CV and should be concise (1–2 pages). In North America, "CV" is reserved for academic, research, or medical contexts, where the document can be several pages long and include publications, presentations, and detailed academic history.
In practice: For most job seekers outside of academia, a CV and a resume mean essentially the same thing—a short, tailored document that markets your skills, experience, and education to potential employers.
Finding the right job can be challenging, but every strong application brings you closer to your goal. Remember, your resume is more than a document—it's your introduction and your chance to show how your experience fits what an employer needs. Approach the process with patience, persistence, and confidence.

For professionals from cultures that value straightforward communication, navigating English-speaking workplaces can feel like walking a diplomatic tightrope. How do you stay clear and confident while avoiding the dreaded labels of "blunt" or "rude"? The answer lies in balancing diplomacy and directness—a skill that bridges cultural gaps without sacrificing your message's power.
Are directness and diplomacy opposites?
Not exactly, but in international business, they often feel like it! In this article, we find the sweet spot where you can be direct and clear, whilst still being diplomatic.

Many cultures—including German, Dutch, Scandinavian, Russian, and Israeli—value directness. Say what you mean, cut to the point, avoid wasting words. It feels efficient, honest, and respectful.
But in many English-speaking contexts, directness can be misread as bluntness, rudeness, disrespect, insensitivity, or arrogance. In English spheres, diplomacy is valued, so please – soften your tone, leave room for interpretation, and protect the other person’s “face.” (face = pride or self respect)
For professionals from direct-speaking cultures, these difference can create misunderstandings. The good news? Diplomatic English can be learned, practiced, and mastered—without losing your clarity or confidence.
Common challenge: Direct translations from German or Dutch can sound too blunt.
Useful softeners:
Practice: Turn “That’s a bad idea” into three softer alternatives.
Common challenge: Feedback may come across as overly critical or personal.
Tips:
Pattern: Positive → Constructive → Positive (feedback sandwich).
Common challenge: Saying “No” too directly or interrupting without softening.
Useful alternatives to “That’s wrong”:
Practice: Transform “I don’t agree” into three more diplomatic versions.
Read more about How to Disagree Diplomatically
Common problem: Over-prioritizing logic and efficiency while embarrassing others.
Best practices:
Example: Instead of “You made a mistake with the figures,” try:
“Just to be sure I understand—should this figure be 1.2 or 1.3 million?”
Common problem: Addressing tension head-on, which may feel abrupt in English.
Diplomatic alternatives to “You’re wrong”:
Practice: Handle disagreement without using the phrase “I disagree.”
Common challenge: Questions that sound impatient or accusatory.
Useful starters:
Common challenge: Jumping straight to business, which can feel abrupt.
Instead, try:
Tip: In online meetings, start with a smile, a polite greeting, and a simple opener:
“Hi, I’m . It’s good to meet you—where are you joining from today?”
Common challenge: Speaking too fast, sounding monotone, or too formal.

Acronyms = Pronounced as new words
Initialisms = Each letter is said separately
Acronyms and initialisms are both forms of abbreviations (shortened forms of words or phrases).
Pro tip: In everyday conversation, people often say "acronym" for both — but now you know the technical difference!
Speak each letter separately.
Note: All of the abbreviations listed above are initialisms, though ASAP and SaaS can also be used as acronyms (say “AY-sap” and “sass”).
You can use these in correspondence with colleagues in a less formal tone.
Speak each letter separately.
✅ Know your audience — not everyone knows every abbreviation
✅ When in doubt, write it out

Prosody is one of the most powerful—and often overlooked—elements of spoken English. It’s the music of our language – rhythm, stress, and melody – and it plays a key role in how clearly you can communicate. Even if your grammar or accent is flawed, good prosody carries meaning, intent, and emotion; helping your listener understand exactly what you're saying.
Pro Tip: The pronunciation of "prosody" is /ˈprɒsədi/— the stress is on the first syllable.
Prosody bridges the gap between words and meaningful communication

Prosody bridges the gap between words and fluent communication. It shapes how your message is received—how confident, clear, and emotionally connected you sound. Even if your grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation are strong, flat, incorrect, or robotic prosody will make your speech confusing, boring, irritating – or even scary! In fast or high-stakes conversations, prosody can be the difference between a winning performance and a total flop—a confident connection or a complete misfire. It’s not optional. It’s essential.
✅ Slow down! – Most non-native speakers talk too fast. Reduce your speed to about 140–160 words per minute. This gives you time to think, gives your listener time to understand, and – big bonus – makes you sound confident!
✅ Pause with purpose – A short pause before or after a key point adds impact, "chunking" your meaning so that your message is easily digested (understood). Silence is powerful.
✅ Emphasize keywords – Don’t stress every word. Highlight important (content) words with pitch, volume, or length. And let the function words relax and take a back seat!
✅ Vary your pitch – Rising and falling tones help you signal meaning, making your speech natural and engaging. A monotone voice loses attention fast.
✅ Practice shadowing – Listen to short native speaker clips and mimic exactly how they sound. Focus on rhythm and melody, not just words.
✅ Let your voice show feeling – Express emotion naturally and clearly. This is how connection happens.
✅ Allow yourself to grow – Good prosody might feel awkward at first. That’s normal. Keep going.
Serious about mastering prosody? Consider Spoken Business English Training
Prosody includes several elements that work together:
Let’s look at the most useful prosody points for ESL speakers.
English relies on pitch changes to show:
Examples:
Practice:
English is a stress-timed language. That means:
We usually stress content words (nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs) and reduce function words (prepositions, articles, pronouns).
How to stress a word? Make it louder or longer. Or change ths pitch.
Example: “I went to the store to buy some bread.”
Stress: WENT, STORE, BUY, BREAD
Reduce: to, the, to, some
Try it:
Break your speech into thought groups—small, meaningful units.
Example: "After the meeting / we’ll review the action items / and plan the next steps."
Tips:
Obama is the master of the pause. Check out this recent video, featuring Obama with historian Heather Cox Richardson (June 17, 2025) at The Connecticut Forum.
The schwa /ə/ is the most common English vowel. It’s a soft, short sound that usually appears in unstressed syllables. The schwa is the vowel sound you repeat in this sentence : Up the bluff / Bud runs / with the cup of love. In everyday speech, schwa sounds and function words are usually reduced (said quickly and a bit carelessly).
Examples:
Practice: Try this sentence: "I want to go to the office in the morning."
Too fast? You sound nervous, impatient, and hard to understand.
Too slow? You sound unsure and unprofessional.
Ideal pace: 140–160 WPM (words per minute)
Pro tip: Being mindful of the rate above, use slow-downs to emphasize key points and speed-ups for less important info. Pause for effect.
Try this: “I was walking down the street… / when suddenly… / someone called my name.”
Stretch "suddenly". Pause. Then hit the final phrase.
Pro tip: In any case, don't spray words like a firehose! Speed does NOT = fluency.

Use contrast to highlight differences:
Use parallelism for clarity and rhythm:
Try this: “He didn’t listen to the data. / He didn’t listen to the team. / He only listened to himself.”
Feel how the pattern builds power?
Languages organize rhythm differently. Some use a syllable-timed rhythm—where each syllable is given roughly equal time—while others use a stress-timed rhythm—where stressed syllables set the beat, and everything else compresses around them.
If your native language is syllable-timed, your English may sound overly even or mechanical. If it’s stress-timed, you might already have a feel for English rhythm.
Syllable-timed languages: French, Italian, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Hindi
Stress-timed languages: English, Dutch, German, Russian, European Portuguese
Wrap-Up: The Voice Behind the Words
Prosody is what transforms language into communication. It’s the heartbeat of compelling speech—the difference between being heard and being remembered. Your voice is your instrument—don’t be afraid to play it. It has range, color, and power. When you learn to use it with intention, you go from good to great as a speaker. You land your TED Talk—or that next job. Your voice is the sound of your personality. For second-language speakers, it’s often the secret ingredient that transforms "pretty good English" into confident, compelling communication.
Start with just one habit—maybe slowing down, or shadowing clips—and build from there. If you want feedback, coaching can make a huge difference.

This guide is a usrer-friendly reference for improving the flow of English communication via words that connect—whether you're writing or speaking in business, academic, or everyday settings. It includes a wide range of linking words (also called connectors), many of which are used across both formal and informal contexts. Words are grouped by function and listed alphabetically, with formality labels, clear explanations, and real-world examples from both written and spoken usage.

Words that connect ideas—within or between sentences—are known by various labels depending on the context. Common terms include linking words, connectors, and connectives. In grammar and linguistics, they are often called conjunctions (coordinating, subordinating, correlative) or discourse markers when used to organize extended speech or writing. In academic contexts, they may also be referred to as transitional devices or cohesive devices. All these terms describe words or phrases that guide the reader or listener through the logical flow of communication.
Different linking words suit different contexts. This guide includes a range of connectors used in business, academic, and informal English. Each entry is marked with a formality label—[Formal], [Neutral], or [Informal]—to help you choose the right word for your audience and situation. For example, “furthermore” is ideal for reports or essays, while “plus” is better suited to casual speech or informal writing.

Ever feel like you're wrestling with AI, trying to get it to understand what you need? You're not alone. Many business professionals are discovering the power of Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and Gemini, but struggle to get truly useful results. It’s like having a super-smart assistant who requires very specific instructions. Unless you know how to communicate clearly, you won’t unlock their full potential.
This guide will teach you the art of prompt engineering—crafting clear instructions for AI to get the exact results you want. Think of it as learning to "talk" to AI so it understands you perfectly.

To get the best results, you should combine fundamental principles with more advanced methods. Let's cover them first, and then we'll see them in action.
1. Be Clear and Specific: Use simple, direct language. Avoid jargon or ambiguous terms. Clearly state what you want the AI to do.
2. Provide Context: Give the AI the background information it needs to understand the task. Who is the audience? What is the goal of the communication?
3. Define the Tone and Style: Tell the AI how you want it to sound.
4. Use English for Best Results: While many AI models are multilingual, they are most extensively trained on English data. You will almost always get more accurate and nuanced results by writing your prompts in English.
Now, let's see how applying and combining these techniques can transform a simple request into a powerful, ready-to-use draft.
This prompt gives the AI almost no direction.
Prompt: "Write an email about a new product."
The result is a generic template that isn't helpful because the AI has to guess everything.
This prompt is better because it provides the basic building blocks from our core principles.
Prompt: "You are a marketing expert. Write a persuasive email to potential customers about our new AI-powered project management software. Highlight these benefits: increased efficiency, better collaboration, and reduced project costs. Use a professional but friendly tone. Keep it under 200 words."
This result is more focused and highlights value, but still lacks the deep context to be truly compelling.
This prompt gives the AI deep context, turning it into a creative partner by combining our core principles with advanced techniques.
Prompt: "You are the Head of Growth at 'NexusFlow,' a startup challenging established players like Asana. Your brand voice is confident and modern.
Task: Write a launch email for our new product, 'NexusFlow AI.' Its key feature is a predictive engine that forecasts timeline delays and budget overruns.
Audience: Your target is tech-savvy Project Managers at mid-sized companies. Their main problem is dealing with unexpected project delays.
Goal: Get them to sign up for a '14-day free trial, no credit card required.'
Format:
The AI can now produce a near-perfect draft because the prompt masterfully applies the key principles we've discussed:
It's important to know that AI models are not perfect at counting words or characters, so the result might not be exact. However, providing these constraints is still a very powerful technique. It guides the AI to be concise and produces a result much closer to your desired length than a prompt without any limits.
AI tools like Large Language Models (LLMs) can help with much more than just writing emails. Here are some practical ways you can use AI at work:
If you're feeling stuck or unsure where to start, try asking your preferred LLM for help or ideas! A simple prompt like "Help me brainstorm ideas for a marketing campaign" or "Give me an outline for a report on [topic]" can be a great way to get the ball rolling.
AI is a powerful tool, but it's important to use it wisely.
Even with great prompts, AI can make mistakes or "hallucinate" facts. Think of AI as a helpful assistant, not a perfect expert. Always review and edit AI-generated content to check for accuracy and ensure it reflects your own knowledge and values.
A key strategy to prevent these errors is to provide explicit context in your prompt. Instead of relying on the AI's memorized knowledge, give it the specific information it needs. Our expert prompt didn't just say "write about a product," it provided the product brief. This practice, known as "grounding," significantly reduces the chance of hallucinations.
Be careful what you share. With free versions of popular AI tools, your data often becomes the product—meaning your prompts may be used by the AI company to train its future models. When using any AI model for professional purposes, always:
AI models are trained on vast amounts of data from the internet, which contains human biases. Always check the AI's output to ensure it is fair and appropriate.
By mastering the art of prompt writing, you can transform AI from a confusing tool into a powerful partner that boosts your productivity. But remember, AI is just one piece of the communication puzzle.
At The English Center, we understand that effective communication is the key to success. While AI can assist with writing, true confidence comes from mastering the nuances of spoken English and cross-cultural interaction. We are committed to helping you develop all the communication skills you need to succeed in today's global business environment.
