i want to improve my communication skill in english but i hv some grammer problem, i think.Tell me best way to improve english communication skill in short time.
Prof Meherbian, a world-renouned expert in Communication skills says we communicate the least by verbal skills!
The facts are :
VERBAL – 7%. TONAL–35%.
BODY LANGUAGE (Non-verbal) — 58% !
So reading will improve your English, no doubt.
But if you want to improve communication skills, watch a movie, paying careful attention not merely to the story but HOW people are communicating!
When we learnt to speak, as kids, we watched our parents, saw their meaning, noted the tone of what they said, how they gestured, what they meant (often unspoken, right?)
In fact, this is how we learn ANY new language.
how can i improve my english communication skills , by reading or watching movies?

Of course,reading will definitely improve not only your vocabulary but your power of expression and the right choice of words for the right occasion.You must start with some of the great classics.Movies are not recommended except for developing your accent,diction,inflection etc.I would recommend a book titled "Thirty Days to a More Powerful Vocabulary" by Wilfred Funk.If you can digest that book and also solve the exercises at the end of each lesson,your communication skills are
guaranteed to become superb.Have a Great Day.

reading would probably help the most, movies could help with pronunciation, but it most like would have some slang that would be harder to understand. So stick to reading.

well, you have to follow some well known english grammar book for increase your grammar knowledge.I do not think that your grammar knowledge will be rectified by watching english movie.The only profit of watching these are that,you can know the facial expression, body language etc.otherwise you may follow the grammar book for improvement.best of luck.
