what do you think about grammar?

Grammar is the study or science of rules for , the combination of a words into sentences (syntax), and the form of the words (morphology). According to Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary of Current English The rules exist not just to enable us to be understood but to create a framework in which we may be clearly and quickly understood. Therefore, to facilitate understanding, we have, over time, agreed upon certain traditions of word order, syntax (sentence structure), punctuation, and all of the other elements of what we call grammar. Though grammar may be hard to master, these grammatical conventions make communication easier. They are a means to an end, and those who say that grammar doesn’t matter would deprive all of us of those means. Certainly, the usefulness of some of the finer points of grammar is debatable. We will always have quibbles about when it is proper, for example, to use who and whom. Such controversies often arise because language is dynamic – i.e., it constantly but gradually changes and will continue to do so. In modern times, words and usage have begun to change much more rapidly, partly as a result of faster and more extensive communication among diverse groups with different traditions. Grammatical conventions change too, though far more slowly than vocabulary and usage. Modern English grammar actually differs only slightly The case for proper grammar is quite similar to the case for common courtesy, which also seems to be under attack recently. Both are marks not only of refinement but of civilization. Both comprise traditions that people have agreed upon over time to make our living together a little easier.
