Romeo and Juliet question

1- learn how to read and write
2- choose a book
3- hold it
4-open it
5- start reading it word by word!

Good discussion. Would read again.

Umm, well I don't exactly understand the question, but I'll help as best I can :) I think one of the most importaint things is to find books that interest you a lot, ones that you will fully enjoy reading.

I'm a bookworm, but even I have trouble reading if it's a book that is really awful or just something that I don't want to read at the moment.

or do you mean how to focus when reading a book, how to really understand a book and it's meanings when you read it, how to find the time to read, or something else?

Whatever the question I'll try to help as best as I can

that's really a weird question.

Say what now? Either you've worded your question poorly or this is a joke, right?

Start reading the first page from top to bottom then continue in this manner with every page until reaching the last one. Don't forget to take regular breaks though...

Pick up the book.
Hold it between both hands and read the back cover description.
Flick through the pages, inhale the scent of the paper.
Start at the first page and let each word embrace you, transfix you.
Shut out all around you and you not only read a book, but you will live a book, experience and be challenged through that book.

Well, Sonn, since you put this question on the R&J discussion board I am going to assume you may mean how to read a Shakespeare book.

Find out a bit about Shakespearian dialect. If you are having difficulty I suggest the 'Simply Shakespeare side by side' readers.

Next, use a good deal of imagination, picture the events as they would be happening.

You read it.

Considering the book you wrote this on I suspect your real question was "how do you read old books." While the answer is still "you read it."

Generally it's a good idea first to figure out what time period and culture said book comes from. A lot of the culture pours out in books. Because of this it is good to keep a dictionary and/or internet nearby in order to figure out what some of the words or references are about. In older books they tend to use a different diction and references what to them would have been relevant. To us nowadays this can be rather archaic and obscure.

Since you chose a play by Shakespeare it should be read aloud. I'd even prefer listening to a good recording of the play which is how I first read this one.

um if you are having trouble reading Romeo and Juliet I would suggest that you buy the Leonardo dicaprio movie and watch it over and over until you start to understand the dialect and the way they use there wording old English can be hard to understand and maybe having a modern spin to the actual play will help you to understand if that makes any sense

Read a summary of the play first. Wikipedia is fine. Then go see the play. Then read the play. Then go see it again.

I bet you will wind up loving it.

So... this guy, whose first language is clearly not English, comes to this site looking for e-books. As he asks for help here, without having properly understood what he was asking, some chose to try to help, while others chose to make fun of him, condescending, obnoxious, sarcastic. That is the arrogance of some readers and the beauty of forums.

Sonn, I hope you saw Mkfs' comment under yours. That is where you can actually find free e-books.

Well, Sonn, you seem to have an adequate grasp of writing. . . that's a start.
