Grammar is also a body of instructions that can be studied in
schools. (See What is Grammar?) Grammar examines how words or morphemes combine to form meaningful sentences. It is a set of
constraints on the possible sequences of symbols expressed as rules or
principles. Syntax is the basic ingredient of grammar. Grammar tells us the
difference between sets of sentences. We can identify five basic units of
grammatical structure. These are: morphemes, word, phrase, clause and
sentence. There are posts dedicated to each of these 5 aspects. See them
here:
