BASIC ENGLISH: An Introduction to English as General Communication
Basic English: An Introduction to English as General Communication is an academically grounded instructional text designed to support the development of foundational English proficiency among beginning learners in higher education. The book provides a systematic and comprehensive introduction to essential linguistic components, including parts of speech, basic grammatical structures, fundamental sentence patterns, core vocabulary, and introductory pronunciation, offering learners a clear framework for understanding how English functions as a communicative system.
Structured with pedagogical precision, each chapter presents key concepts through concise explanations, illustrative examples, and carefully sequenced activities that promote both conceptual understanding and practical application. The material reflects contemporary approaches in English language education that emphasize clarity, learner engagement, and stepwise progression. By integrating elements of the four core skills, the text supports the development of balanced communicative competence.
A significant strength of this textbook lies in its attention to contextual relevance. The learning tasks and examples are grounded in everyday communication, enabling students to relate new knowledge to familiar situations. This approach not only fosters comprehension but also encourages the active use of English in academic, social, and personal contexts. The book’s learner-centered orientation makes it accessible to students with diverse linguistic backgrounds and varying degrees of prior exposure to the English language.
Designed for introductory courses, the text is suitable for both structured classroom instruction and guided independent study.
