Abstract

In the contemporary era of interactive language instruction, there are several language instructors and students who think that grammar is not necessary when it comes to communication. On the other hand, some specialists maintain that grammar continues to be an essential component in the development of language learning capabilities among students. This review paper aims to explain the role of grammar as a set of rules that governs the structure and formation of sentences in a language. It is helpful because it provides a framework for effective communication by ensuring clarity, coherence, and precision in written and spoken language. A comprehensive investigation is carried out to investigate the significance of grammar in the process of language acquisition and pedagogy, as well as the methods that may be used to successfully include grammar training in language instruction. This review is based on the latest perspectives and findings of several researchers. The findings indicate that grammar encompasses more than a mere compilation of rules or structures. Moreover, possessing a comprehension of grammar might enhance the proficiency of English learners in the process of acquiring it as a foreign language.
