Grammar:

Grammar is the system of a language. People sometimes describe grammar as the "rules" of a language; do we need to study grammar to learn a language? The short answer is "no." "But grammar can help you learn a language more quickly and more efficiently.". So think of grammar as something good, something positive, something that you can use to find your way---like a signpost or a map.

There are certain rules that we have to follow while speaking English, like using the correct form of verbs or using the correct form of the tenses. This part will help you to develop command on correct English Language

How you will approach Grammar  in EFM Journey
