In today's video I will be answering three common questions: Do you need to study grammar? Is grammar important for fluent English? What is the best way to study English grammar? To answer these questions we will take a journey from the definition of grammar, to the origin of language, to what science tells us about the difference between what's in your grammar book and what people actually use in natural conversation.
You will discover if language can exist without grammar and if it's possible to get fluent in English with no grammar study. See you in class!

Children of 10 can speak languages perfectly but don't know what grammar is (but know subconsciously how to use it). So they've learned it with listening and repeating and creating their own sentences using the phrases they heard for so many times. This methord of learning a new language actually works. For adults even better than for children. We need much less time than chindren need, because our knowledge of our own language is much better which helps us learn other languages (depends of language family of course).

Once upon the time when there were no accessible translators on the Internet I decided to write a letter in French to my friend in France just to make her astonished and pleased. I new only a few words in French. We always write in English to each other. I took a little Polish-French dictionary and started my work. And then I realized that I need also a little grama to construct sentences. It took me all day to write a letter and I was proud when my friend from France answered that she could understand everything and was so moved by my letter. I is one of this moments when I understood that language is for communication and for expressing friendship to people. Just as you say Christian. You are a great teacher. Kind regards to you from Gdańsk , Poland. Have you visited Poland. Try to write an answer in Polish....of course I am joking.

Hi Christian, thanks for this video! I would like to add some things : As the definition says, grammar is the way we organize words together in a certain logic. > So grammar exists since language exists, with or without books. Books are just one way to transmit this knowledge. So when you learn a language you might need/want to know the “secrets” behind the sentences you express or not. Grammar rules are these “secrets” and you don’t NEED them to speak but you might WANT to know them to speed up your learning process. Also, in French, we do have respect for the Académie Française, but their power is less and less strong ( they are not so modern people), because we want to let the language evolve a little bit faster (faster than the Académie would like it to evolve sometimes). And this is a long and complex subject. But I would like to finish with this : when we don’t follow the official rules, the ones from the Académie for example, that does not mean we don’t follow any rule, we just follow ANOTHER rule, because a language does not exists without rules, as you shown in the first study you talked about with the children. Voilà! A bientôt. Elsa

A good common-sense conclusion. I really don't know why people make this so complicated. If you hate grammar and are intimidated by it, of course you can learn without it. But learning by deducing language patterns from massive input is slow - it takes children a decade to talk like 10-year-olds. And it's a faculty that declines rapidly with age, so the older you are the harder it gets. On the other hand our ability to read and to reason develops with age. So unless you really actively hate working with grammar patterns, spending a bit of time learning to recognise them and automate them will pay off handsomely in terms of speeding up your progress. Just use it as an aid to your interaction with native language, and not as an end in itself. And that, surely, is about all you need to say about it, despite the oceans of impassioned debate on the KZbin vlogosphere...

True, but also you can't quite translate meaning. For example you can say we have to wash the dishes after we eat. Depending on the context of how it's said. It can mean at least three different things. Literally we have to wash the dishes after we eat or expressed in disgust and dislike Or as a question. People sometimes forget it's how you say it to.

I certainly learned German "on the street" back in the 70s, as we had no money to pay for lessons or grammar books. Back in those days, people in Germany were not so capable of conversing in English (lucky for me, I guess), so it was either sink or swim. I was fluent wthin the first year. Might not be the best way for everyone, but it worked for me.

Cantonese Chinese is my mother and I can speak mandarin Chinese, not very fluently though. if grammar is like what it is in English,,like the English grammar. I would say Chinese is like almost gramnarless. we don't have articles, tenses, and the like in Chinese. I remembered when I started to study English at the age of 17, I opened a pocket dictionary of English, the first thing that baffled me was a, an and the. the lack of tenses in Chinese make Chinese people speak in a way that is confusing . when someone is recounting past events, the timeline in which things happened is not clear, what came first and what came later..the lack of pronouns of he, she and it in spoken Chinese makes it hard for the listener to follow which aforementioned items they refer to. no singular and plural forms of nouns can influence the way one thinks. the underdeveloped nature of the Chinese language makes it easy for many native English speakers to learn to be fluent after their failed attempts at other foreign languages like French, German or Spanish. as some linguistists have said that Chinese was a baby talk, that's why Chinese civilization can not develop to be a modern civilization, like the western civilization. or the anglo saxon civilization. Chinese culture is like an ancient culture. edit :Chinese do have parts of speech and word order. 英國Britain ,英國人a brit,Briton, a British person, an Englishman ,英語English, the language. 英國人在in英國說speak 英語。 the British people 人in Britain speak說English. the Brits speak English in Britain. I can't go on, it is too complicated.

But I would say for speaking that pronunciation, intonation, stresses, reductions, exc. Are far more important in speaking. Because if you can speak so clearly. Close to a native level. Even if you mess up the grammar some. They will still understand you easily. Besides you can improve your grammar later on. Eventually you will make less mistakes. For example you could say I my dog walk today. Yea grammar wise it'swrong. But if they say it really good. Then you will still easily understand it no problem.

Grammar is a technical knowledge if you make it explicit, but grammar is also a logic relationship between words that you learn implicitly. See this example that I lived: My husband had to take an exam to demonstrate his level of English for a PhD. He never took courses and he never traveled to an anglo-saxon country, but he always listened to music, watched movies and read scientific articles in English. He went to an English School and took the Michigan without studying or even practicing, he is so self-confident (and so brave to do that)! Because of the urgency to start his PhD and because he's not affraid of the people's judgment, he jumped in to it! but my prejudices made me think that he was going to fail embarrassingly. He obtained B2 in speaking!🎉!.. But A beginner in grammar!!! (filling the blanks is something he never did before and those broken phrases were a headache for him)... however reading and writing went good. He entered to the PhD program successfully. As I teach philosophy of language, in linguistics, this particular case made me confirmed many of the theories of natural learning. I was completely stunned. He doesn't know grammar, but he does.

Good video. The whole concept of prescriptive grammar is an issue because certain authorities in the case of French being an official one and in the case of English being non-official but with a high reputation such as Oxford don't necessarily reflect how the language actually is. I used to work as an EFL teacher and remember teaching grammar rules such as "fewer" for countable nouns and "less" for uncountable nouns yet the reality is most English speakers just use "less" for both noun classes like how "more" is used in the same way. Or take the time like certain verbs sásta static and can't be used in a progressive form such as "like", "love", "remember" and "forget" yet it's now become common to hear phrases like "I'm really liking this party". The point is languages evolve to respond to certain needs. Maybe using less in the same way as more actually makes sense. Maybe the emergence of new progressive forms of certain verbs brings in a new way to convey an idea like "I'm remembering that situation" which means like "I'm coming to remember something that I'd previously forgotten".

I use imitation to learn accords and new songs. However, I think it is important that there are musical rules, which is finally same to what happens with grammar and language. Language must understand grammar and grammar must understand that people learn a new language have a priority "communication" before complying with the rules 100%.

@CanguroEnglish , In Brazil we have the Academia Brasileira de Letras (Brazilian Academy of Letters). It’s charged with the care of the "national language" of Brazil (the Portuguese language) and with the promotion of Brazilian literary arts. The academy's main publication in this field is the Orthographic Vocabulary of the Portuguese Lan which has five editions. The Vocabulary is prepared by the academy's Commission on Lexicology and Lexicography. If a word is not included in the Vocabulary, it is considered not to exist as a correct word in Brazilian Portuguese.

1) Grammar is a VIRTUAL MACHINE of a language. It is invisible but it is there 2) The purpose of this machine is: a) to encode/MODulate outgoing message and b) decode/DEModulate incoming message (yes, it is a virtual MO-DEM built in your head). 3) The logic/algorythm of a modem encoding-decoding(message processing) is called - a PROTOCOL You can violate a protocol to some extent but still have a successful communication. However, it doesn't mean that you are free to do whatever you want. It is just a damn good protocol that allows/tolerates a great deal of your mistakes. 4) Good example of the protocol violation that ruins communication is APHASIA (mental impairment). When you speak with aphasia patient, you have the words but you often cannot recontruct the meaning (because the protocol is critically violated). 5) Key problem of learning grammar is that it is a set of abstract/invisible rules (human brain by nature is very bad a processing abstractions. It takes education to train this ability.) 6) However, human brain is very good at processing NATURAL OBJECTS (something that you can touch, imagine, play with etc). This is why, being and engineer and English teacher, I built a 3D GUI (Graphic User Interface) of a power-core (verbal grammar) of this virtual machine. I called it - Grammar Cube. 7) Here is a video of using it in class (Text to Cube drill - kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKaYeYyNnNt0h7s ) 8) Here is a reverse drill - kzbin.info/www/bejne/i52vm5qroaiYqdU ) and this is how this protocol looks in action kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3bTnYaPoM6VaJI 9) Here is the interactive model to play with (takes some time to upload - cdn.soft8soft.com/AROAJSY2GOEHMOFUVPIOE:c3dc73b09a/applications/GrammarCube/GrammarCube.html? I hope it will be useful for English language students and help them better understand a true natue of a language grammar.

Christian, thank you for your video. It's great, as usual. I learn grammar, but I also try to use it. And that's why I don't feel bad about this :) A friend of mine struggles with grammar because she likes to do grammar exercises without using it, and she deceives herself, I suppose. She thinks that she learns English, but actually, she just does grammar tests or something else. I hope I'll be able to explain to her that she needs to use it :)

grammar is an explanation of the language, and for people just need to speak.

What is the alternative to studying grammar? An earlier video of Christian touched on this which talked about ‘meaning-based’ learning. Instead of grammar the student receives comprehensible input (easily decipherable messages). CI is then anchored by means of physical movement and story. Most of the emphasis in the early stages should be on decoding the language. You can only meaningfully encode once you are able to decode. Speaking is the SPONTANEOUS RESULT of acquisition which happens through decoding. You can not acquire language by talking about it. If you want to learn to ride a bike, jump on. Don’t listen to dreary explanations about the fundamentals of balance.

What do you think or consider about the role of primitive chiefs, leaders, kings and queens etc their accent, including the characteristics of their voices, how they used to put their tongues on teeth when talking, how were their throat sounds, etc. I guess that people tends to imitate the authorities faithful yelling like the priests, kids like mome and dad, employees as employers, it has been happening all the time since millions ages.
