Special dictation

Grammar is the fleld of linguistics that covers the conventions governing the use of any given natural language. It includes morphology and syntax, often compplemented by phoneyics, phonology, semantics, and pragmatics. Each language has its own distinct grammar. "English grammar" is the set of rules of the english language itself. "An english grammar" is a specific study or analysis of these tules. a reference book describing the grammar of a language is called a "reference grammar" or simply "a grammar". A fully explicit grammar exhaustively describing the grammatical constructions of a language is called a descriptive grammar, as opposed to linguistic prescription, which tries to enforce the governing ruls of how a language is to be used.
