Learning a new language is like being born again into a new culture and new country. Just like a baby who is learning to speak, a language learner must do something similar and step by step learn to talk a new language. So, to learn a new language, is to figure out how to build sentences.
One of the most effective ways for overcoming this challenge is categorization of the information we want to master. Tackling a problem one at a time is a lot manageable than tackling it all at once.
Building language
Consider you are a construction builder and you are trying to build a mansion. Where do you start? What do you use? Your bricks are the vocabulary you learn and grammar is the cement holding the bricks together.
With these, you can start building rows of bricks (sentences) and walls (paragraphs). Grammar teaches us how to choose words and how to put them together.
Studying Grammar
Grammar schools are one of the most ancient schools throughout history. A long time ago, people in ancient Room and Greek went to grammar school. In order to learn a language, grammar is the key. It is grammar that leads to communication, it won’t matter how many words you know, without grammar you cannot make a correct sentence.
