Types of Grammar Part 3 (B)

Welcome back to the Lead with Girls series! 📚✨
​In Part 3 (B) of our deep dive into linguistics, we are unpacking four of the most influential and fascinating frameworks in the study of language. Whether you are a student, a teacher, or just a language lover, understanding these types of grammar will change the way you look at sentences forever.
​We move beyond simple definitions to explore how rules are made, how our brains generate infinite sentences, and how words naturally glue together.

​📝 What We Cover in This Video:

​Prescriptive Grammar: The "rule book" of language. We discuss the strict rules that dictate how we should speak and write versus how we actually do.
​Generative Grammar: Based on the theories of Noam Chomsky, we explore the idea that the ability to create language is innate and hardwired into the human brain.
​Transformational Grammar: How do we turn a thought into a question? Or an active sentence into a passive one? We look at the "Deep Structure" vs. "Surface Structure" of our speech.
​Lexical Grammar: Forget complex syntax trees—this approach focuses on the words (lexis) and common phrases/chunks that naturally go together (collocations).
