1.   Four Language Skills

2. Listening  is the  first language  skill we acquire in our native language. It is what is known as a receptive skill, or a passive skill, as it requires us to use our ears and our brains to comprehend language as it is being spoken to us. It is the first of two natural language skills, which are required by all natural spoken languages.

3. Speaking  is the  second language  skill we acquire in our native language. It is what is known as a productive skill, or an active skill, as it requires us to use our vocal tract and our brains to correctly produce language through sound. It is the second of two natural language skills.

4. Reading  is the third language skill we may acquire in our native language. As with listening, it is a receptive, or passive skill, as it requires us to use our eyes and our brains to comprehend the written equivalent of spoken language. It is one of the two artificial language skills, as not all natural spoken languages have a writing system.

5. Writing  is the fourth language skill we may acquire in our native language. As with speaking, it is a productive, or active skill, as it requires us to use our hands and our brains to produce the written symbols that represent our spoken language. Along with reading, it is one of the two artificial language skills, as not all natural spoken languages have a writing system.

6. When You Should Learn All Four Skills You should learn all four skills if you want to have full access to the language as native speakers do . Knowing how to  listen  will help you: Comprehend natives when they speak Watch and understand movies, television, and online video Listen to the radio and podcasts Knowing how to  speak  will help you: Engage natives in conversation Address audiences Knowing how to  read  will help you: Read newspapers, books, and magazines Interpret in-country signs, alerts, and notices Knowing how to  write  will help you: Compose personal emails, letters, and text messages Write articles, essays, books, or other long-form texts.

7. Your Target Language Doesn’t Allow All Four Skills Due to historical circumstances, certain languages are lacking the necessary conditions that allow learners to effectively develop all four major language skills: If you are learning  a language without a writing system , for example,  then you will be unable to learn to read or write that language. According to Ethnologue , out of 7,099 languages alive today, only 3,866 have an equivalent writing system. If you are learning an  extinct or dead language  (like Latin or Ancient Greek), you cannot learn to truly speak or listen to them as they were originally spoken, as there are no native speakers alive today . Your Goals Do Not Require All Four Skills Depending on what you wish to accomplish with your target language, you may need to learn one or two of the skills, rather than all four.

8. The Use of Audio-Visuals

9. Audiovisual  ( AV ) means possessing both a  sound  and a  visual  component, such as  slide-tape   presentations, films ,  television programs , church services and live theater productions.
