PostHeaderIcon The Rules of Grammar

Let’s say that you happen to be one of those people that has a very limited vocabulary, understanding how to combine the same words into different sequences to impart different meanings can be very affective, here is a great example: “Sheila heard him screaming at her” or “Sheila heard her screaming at him” both of these sentences employ the exact same words, but by rearranging the order of the words “her” and “him” we were able to give the words different meanings. Grammar is the only thing that makes this possible. Grammar by definition is a languages set of rules that dictate the ordering and combining of words to make them into understandable sentences.
