105 Journal Entry #3

[Jimin Yoo]

Since I am a native speaker and wanting to learn deeper into my first language, I don't recall learning a sentence structure or grammar structure of a language. However, I definitely think that learning a structure of language would improve my comprehension skill when I read and to think in more logical ways. Encountering dense articles or news, I always use to break up one sentence into multiple parts and read them again. Learning sentence structure would benefit this kind of aspect. In order to acquire the knowledge I need, I would have to dedicate more time when I read. I would break up the sentence into parts and try to understand separately at first. Then, I would put the sentence together to make sense as a whole. Furthermore, I think reference grammar would also help tremendously, as I still have to look up for different combination of sentences for clear understanding when I read.
