Grammar
We begin with the term ‘grammar’, which we have taken largely for granted so far. This term has a number of different meanings. A grammar can be a written volume, such as a descriptive reference grammar prepared by a linguist for consultation by other linguists, or a teaching grammar prepared for language students. The term ‘grammar’ also refers to the discipline that focuses on morphology (word structure) and syntax (sentence structure), whether from the perspective of language learning (for example, French grammar, Latin grammar), from the perspective of language description, or from the perspective of general linguistics, where ‘grammar’ has the status of a subdiscipline alongside phonetics, phonology, semantics and so on. Indeed, an introductory ‘grammar’ course in a linguistics programme will usually focus solely upon word structure and sentence structure. If the approach taken is purely descriptive, this is known as ‘descriptive grammar’. It is fair to point out, however, that even a ‘purely descriptive’ approach rests upon certain theoretical assumptions, even if these are not made explicit. The term ‘grammar’ is also used to refer to a theory of language such as Langacker’s Cognitive Grammar or Chomsky’s Generative Grammar. Finally, the term can also be used to refer to the psychological system that represents a speaker’s knowledge of language. In these last two senses, the term is not (necessarily) restricted to word structure and sentence structure, but is applied to human language in general, and thus encompasses phonology and linguistic meaning as well as morphology and syntax.
