BSED ENGLISH 3 EL 108 PRELIM MODULE
ACTIVITY 1
1. MENTAL GRAMMAR - is the generative grammar stored in the brain that allows
a speaker to produce language that other speakers can understand. It is also known as
competence grammar and linguistic competence.
2. PRESCRIPTIVE GRAMMAR - is a set of rules about language based on how
people think language should be used. In a prescriptive grammar there is right and
wrong language. It can be compared with a descriptive grammar, which is a set of
rules based on how language is actually used.
3. DESCRIPTIVE GRAMMAR - is a set of rules about language based on how it is
actually used. In a descriptive grammar there is no right or wrong language. It can be
compared with a prescriptive grammar, which is a set of rules based on how people
think language should be used.
4. LINGUISTIC GRAMMAR - simply the collection of principles defining how to
put together a sentence. One sometimes hears people say that such-and-such a
language 'has no grammar', but that is not true of any language. Every language has
restrictions on how words must be arranged to construct a sentence.
5. REFERENCE GRAMMAR - is a prose-like description of the major grammatical
constructions in a language, illustrated with examples.
6. PEDAGOGICAL GRAMMAR- refers to the grammatical content taught to a
student learning a language other than his or her first language or the methods used in
teaching that content. The goal of this type of grammar is primarily to increase
fluency and accuracy of speech, rather than to impart theoretical knowledge.
7. TEACHER'S GRAMMAR - is a comprehensive resource text designed to help
ESL/EFL teachers understand and teach American English grammar.

Grammar is the structural foundation of our ability to express ourselves. The more we
are aware of how it works, the more we can monitor the meaning and effectiveness of
the way we and others use language. It can help foster precision, detect ambiguity,
and exploit the richness of expression available in English

NEW IDEAS
In this activity I have learned that grammar has a huge impact on everything we say,
how we deliver everything we say, how we compose, construct and make our ideas
written for others to read.
YOUR TASK.
Correct grammar is your key to speaking English fluently and confidently. Knowing
your grammar will help you avoid errors that make your English sound strange to
native speakers.
But there are certain situations in which English grammar is especially important. For
example, if you’re going for a job interview in an English-speaking country, the
employer will be interested in the quality of your spoken and written English.
Correct grammar won’t just demonstrate your English skills—it’ll also show that
you’re diligent and have an eye for detail.
Grammar is even important for your social life. Did you know that people on online
dating apps are 14% less likely to chat with someone who uses poor grammar? Plus,
when you’re meeting new people or visiting new places, the last thing you want is to
be misunderstood! To avoid confusing your friends, or even ordering more drinks than
you intended, you need to have a firm idea of how to structure your words.
While English grammar can seem daunting in places, learning to understand and use it
correctly is incredibly rewarding. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes as you practice
English. Sometimes this is the best way to learn! If you’re committed and enthusiastic
towards tackling grammar, it can be an absorbing and even exciting aspect of learning
a new language.
