Grammar and Language Rules

Why Do We Need Grammar?

Grammar is the set of rules for how we use words in sentences. It helps us speak and write clearly so others understand us.

Important Grammar Rules

  • Use correct verb tenses (past, present, future).
  • Match subjects and verbs (She runs, They run).
  • Use punctuation marks correctly.

Everyday Grammar

Good grammar is used when writing stories, making signs, or talking with friends.

Examples

  • Changing 'run' to 'ran' when talking about yesterday.

  • Making sure to use a question mark at the end of a question.

In a Nutshell

Grammar rules help us build clear sentences and communicate well.
