GRAMMAR

Grammar is important because it helps us communicate clearly and effectively in writing and speaking. Grammar refers to the rules and structure that govern the way words are used in a language. When we follow the grammar rules, our sentences make sense, and our ideas become easier to understand.

Learning English grammar can be a bit challenging, but with practice and useful tips, it can become easier. 

Parts of speech
