Anyone who has ever studied a foreign language has probably noticed how fluent, after a couple drinks, everyone at the table seems. Well, seeming is believing, it seems. Several studies have shown that a moderate amount of alcohol “reduces language anxiety” leading to, according to Time Magazine, increased proficiency.
“This might enable foreign language speakers to speak more fluently in the foreign language after drinking a small amount of alcohol,” the authors of one study in the Journal of Psychopharmacology concluded.
University students just about everywhere drink an inordinate amount, often engaging in silly drinking games just to get stinko fast. The whole point of Drunken English is to channel that impulse into something productive. In some countries, particularly in Asia, students are also predisposed to forming serious self-study groups. Drunken English is a tool that can be used to garner extensive fluency practice in a completely nonthreatening setting, something hard to come by in many parts of the world. Such relaxed experience can be invaluable at boosting spoken English scores in standard tests such as TOEIC Speaking, the TSE, IELTS or TOEFL.
To put it in terms that language education guru Stephen Krashen would recognize, engaging in light-hearted banter with peers in the relaxed setting of a popular hangout reduces the affective filter, something that can even put the kibosh on communication activities in the classroom.
One unshakeable rule of Drunken English is that participants should never be coerced into drinking alcohol. That condition is stated plainly throughout the app with high profile positioning and translated into 8 key languages on the initial landing screen.
Some instructors will find Drunken English to be a fun activity to deploy, alcohol-free, even in the classroom, particularly in a class party at session end or just to change things up a bit. Only person per group need download Drunken English with pricing set at the lowest tier.
The content of Drunken English is risqué at times, the kinds of topics young adults sometimes seem preoccupied with, but students always have the option of opting out of answering, choosing a random penalty instead. Drunken English is not recommended for teens 16 or younger.
Enjoy the silly banter, English banter, that Drunken English generates but, ALWAYS, drink responsibly.
