How in English would language be part of the body. Body anatomy in English for children. circulatory, nervous system

Let's talk a little about our body (body). How often in everyday conversation have you had to mention your own or other people's body parts? And how often have you seen a description of a person in a book? It is not easy to immediately remember how to pronounce, for example, the back of the head orhow to spell eyes in english.

The subject of the human body (human body) is very extensive, because it includes not only parts of the torso, but also parts of the face, arms, legs, and even internal organs. We hope that you will not find yourself in a situation where on vacation abroad you will need medical assistance and you will need to describe what happened and “where it hurts”. But if this happens, this knowledge can save the life of you or your friend.

From this article you will learn the names of allparts of the human body English language . This will help you not only describe yourself or another person, but also in many other situations: at the doctor's office, in the beauty salon, and so on.

Before going into detailbody parts in English with translation,let's talk about the basic knowledge that we need.

So, our body consists of a torso (body), arms (arms), legs (legs) and a head (head). We look at the world with our eyes (eyes), we smell around with our nose (nose), we hear sounds with our ears (ears), we make sounds with our mouth (mouth), which has teeth (teeth), and we kiss our loved ones with lips (lips).

In order to remember how certain parts of the body or face will be called in English, it is best to learn them along with pictures or “find” these parts on yourself and immediately come up with a phrase or situation in which you can use this word.

Also, any word in English will be easier to remember if you associate it with something. For example, in order to remember how the verb “to hear” (to hear) will be in English, it will be enough to remember the name of the ear (ear). But to go to the hairdresser and get yourself a new hairstyle, you need to knowHow do you say "hair" in English?(hair). By the way, the word "hair" in English is the basis for many other more complex words. For example, a hairdryer would be called a hairdryer, a hairdresser would be a hairdresser, and hairspray would be a hairspray. So knowing the word"hair" in English translationthe words associated with it will not cause you any difficulties: you can just guess their meaning intuitively.

Interestingly, some parts of the body in English will be called differently in the singular and in the plural. We already knowHow do you say "eye" in English?- eye. But how will"eyes" in English yi in the plural? Just add the ending "-s": eyes. Similarly with the ears: one ear - ear, two - ears. But “lips” will almost always be used immediately in the plural (lips), if we do not need to say about some specific one (upper or lower).

But with the feet (feet) is a completely different story. IN singular the foot will be foot, and in the plural - feet (but not feet). A similar story with teeth. In the singular, a tooth is tooth, and in the plural, teeth. By the way, the toothpaste will be toothpaste, not teethpaste. It just needs to be remembered.

Believe me, you already know many of the body parts. Remember the movie Jaws? Its Russian adaptation title is translated extremely accurately (and this does not always happen with films). In English, it is called "Jaws", literally - jaws. So, one jaw will be jaw. Something consonant with the Russian word "chew". Here is an example of another great association to remember.

heart in englishlanguage will be heart. This is an important word that you will come across quite often: in films, songs, and just in a conversation about feelings. Remember the famous song "My Heart Will Go On" (My heart will keep beating)? So, in order for our heart to continue to beat, it is necessary that our entire body function as a single whole.

Video tutorials

Recently, video lessons and presentations have become indispensable in pedagogy. They actively include visual memory and images in training, activating the memorization process.

A video lesson and presentation on parts of the human body is available on our website. Here you will find not only words, but also images, interesting slides, excerpts from cartoons. They will help the kid to remember foreign words. The video lesson includes a song about body parts. It is the song that will become the best assistant and teacher for the children, forcing them to memorize complex words to the music.

Songs

A video lesson or presentation is much more interesting than a regular lesson at school. In this case, the lesson is always accompanied not only by the repetition of the word and boring exercises, but also by music, songs, pictures, cartoons, and, as a rule, favorite characters or experienced presenters lead it. The video lesson turns into a real fairy tale, into an acquaintance with the living world of words. The presentation, as well as video clips, can be used in English classes in elementary grades of the school, study centers foreign languages, children's aesthetic centers and to prepare children for school by private teachers. The material will be useful everywhere and will make the lesson more colorful and varied, and will attract the attention of the children. Parents can use the posters and video tutorials for self-study with their children.

The study of body parts in English does not involve a detailed consideration of human anatomy. If the child has recently started learning a language, do not be afraid if the teacher suddenly starts such a difficult topic. Many words used for body parts are very short and easy to pronounce.. The kid will fill up lexicon and acquire new knowledge.

Learn the parts of the human body with our tutorials. They will help to organize the work competently and will bring a lot of benefits to your baby.

English has become an international language due to its relative simplicity and logical construction of phrases. It is not surprising that in our country, schoolchildren begin to learn it almost from the first grade. If you are no longer a schoolboy, but at one time you studied at school, for example, German, which you safely forgot six months after graduation, then you will probably need to learn at least the basic and basic concepts, the most commonly used words and phrases. For example, such as "exit", "input", "call", "police", "hotel", etc. They will be very useful to you when you are abroad. And knowing what certain parts of the body are called in English can even save your life.

Here, for example, is such an unpleasant, but quite possible situation: you were injured in any part of the body or saw how someone got it. The injury is serious enough and you call an ambulance. But if you don't know how to report which specific part of your body is injured, you won't be able to explain over the phone exactly what happened and what help you need.

Let's look at the main parts of the human body and their names in English. To them should be attributed, firstly, the head. In English it would be "head". The transcription (pronunciation) of this word, if written in international format, will look like this: . You can completely simplify the task and write the same transcription in Russian characters, but it should be borne in mind that in this case the pronunciation will be only approximately correct, since many sounds of the English language are absolutely alien to Russian, therefore, a reliable representation of them using Russian characters will be very difficult . So, the word "head" is pronounced like [head], and the sound "e" should sound drawn out.

How to quickly learn the names of body parts in English?

You should try to learn them with the help of pictures, tongue twisters, all kinds of sites where you can learn words. Remember how as a child you taught parts of the human body in your native language: mouth, ears, eyes, nose... Try to do the same now - point in the mirror at yourself or at the one with whom you study and pronounce body parts. So they will be deposited in the mind better. In general, look for ways, fantasize, learn from someone else!

Description of a person's appearance in English.

Just like in the first case, you may for some reason need to describe the appearance of a person, and for this you also need to know the names of some parts of the body. But, the description of a person in English, as, in general, in any other language, can consist of several hundred different parameters and characteristics, so let's consider what gives the most accurate and understandable description of a person's appearance - his face. After all, sometimes it’s enough to say that someone has dark long hair, a big nose and brown eyes, and everyone has already clearly imagined this person, right?

Parts of a person's face in English

  • 🔊 Listen Cheek [chick] cheek
  • 🔊 Listen Chin [chin] chin
  • 🔊 Listen to Ear [ɪə (r)] [ia] ear
  • 🔊 Listen Eye [ah] eye
  • 🔊 Listen Eyebrows [eybrow] eyebrows
  • 🔊 Listen Eyelashes [eylash] eyelashes
  • 🔊 Listen Eyelid [eylid] eyelids
  • 🔊 Listen Face [face] face
  • 🔊 Listen to Hair [hea] hair (at the end of the word, if you follow the British pronunciation, there should be a weak sound [p], pronounced as if you were not pronouncing the letter p; in American English there is no such sound)

Interestingly, all parts of the face associated with the eyes (eyebrows, eyelashes, eyelids) in their name in English have the word "eye" as a prefix - eye.

An example of the use of words in speech

Using words that mean parts of the face, you can build something like this description of a person's face:
He had beautiful blue eyes long eyelashes and thin brows. When his lips made a smile everybody could see his perfect white teeth. He had beautiful blue eyes, long eyelashes and thin eyebrows. When his lips smiled, everyone could see perfect white teeth.

So you have studied the main parts of the human body that will help you describe it. Of course, you can’t become a master of verbal description just like that, out of the blue - the language has been taught for years. But these words will help you describe yourself or someone else in an emergency, simply explain yourself to a passerby or a salesman, and help your little son do his homework. In the end, the main thing is that the beginning of the study of parts of the human body has been laid. And you can describe the pale pink skin color, high cheekbones, a pleasant slit of the eyes and long curly hair of your girlfriend when you get used to the language better and devote more time to studying it. Learn, dare, master English - this is a wonderful choice! Good luck and be patient!

It is desirable to know every modern person. Imagine that you are on vacation or on a business trip abroad, and during your vacation (work) you have health problems. It will be very desirable to explain to an English-speaking doctor what exactly and where it hurts. In general, there can be a lot of similar situations - on an airplane, in a store, in a hotel, on the beach, in a bar, in a restaurant ...

Your solid knowledge of body parts in English can serve you and those around you who, for example, do not know the language, in good stead. Going on a trip abroad, ideally, of course, make up a short story about your illnesses and ailments, allergies, supplement it with the names of medicines that usually help you, and learn it. Or at least carry it around. Teach your child these words (basic, at least) so that he, too, feels confident in an emergency. Of course, all the parts of the body in English that you will find in the article cannot be learned right away. Start with the most basic ones (for example, remember how to pronounce eye in English, as it will be in English body, leg, hand, hair etc.), and then gradually memorize less used words. Also, the names of body parts in English will be needed by medical students and applicants for medical colleges and universities. Such a table is useful to any Russian or Ukrainian teacher, because the topic: “Parts of the body in English” is studied in kindergarten, at school, and at the university.
