I. PART A: INTRODUCTION
1. Rationale:
English is one of the most widely used languages worldwide when being
used by over 60% the world population. It‘s used internationally in business,
political, cultural relation and education as well. Thanks to the widespread use
of English, different countries come close to each other to work out the
problems and strive for prosperous community.
Realizing the significance of English, almost all Vietnamese learners have
been trying to be good at English, Mastering English is the aim of every
learners.
However, there still remain difficulties faced by Vietnamese learner of
English due to both objective and subjective factors, especially in writing and
reading numeral because learners sometimes skip when they think that it is an
unimportant part.
Therefore, it is necessary to collect ground rule of reading and writing
English numeral. This will help learner avoid confusedness of English numeral.
2. Aims of the study:
As we know, English numbers often appear in document, even daily
communication. The leaner of English sometimes don‘t know how to read or
write them exactly. Therefore, this research is aimed at:
Collecting type of popular numeral in English document and daily
communication.
Instructing writing and reading numeral exactly.
3. Scope of the study
Numeral in English is a wide category including: mathematic, technology,
business….therefore I only collect numbers used in daily speaking cultures in
this research paper.
