    Speaking and writing are two different skills that students had to learn when they were a little child. They learnt them from their parents‚ from their teachers‚ and from others. It is hard to judge what skill is better than the other‚ but as far as I am concerned‚ in general‚ speaking skill more outweighs writing skill‚ since we use speaking in most of our activities‚ speaking helps us maintain and strengthen our relationships‚ and brings us memorable and relaxing time.
