Abstract

Grammar plays a crucial role in foreign language teaching by providing structural rules that facilitate effective communication. It enhances comprehension, accuracy, and fluency, enabling learners to construct meaningful sentences. Teaching grammar improves linguistic competence and fosters confidence in language use. This article explores grammar's role in foreign language acquisition, instructional approaches, challenges, and recent trends in teaching methodologies. Through text citations and scholarly references, it presents evidence-based perspectives on grammar’s impact on language proficiency.
