Traditional grammar refers to prescriptive grammar rules largely based on Latin rather than modern linguistic research. It focuses on establishing standards for proper language use. While traditional grammar remains common in language education, it has shortcomings - it is not descriptive of actual language use and lacks a theoretical framework. Additionally, the grammar of languages constantly evolves, so the concept of a fixed traditional grammar is problematic. Nonetheless, understanding basic grammar helps with clear communication, even if traditional grammar rules alone are an imperfect system.

This is a material given with the purpose of supplying information about Generative Grammar as a focus that is actually taught everywher. This content was recommended by the Department of Modern Languages at the University of Carabobo, the subject´s name is Pedagogical Grammar and there were lots of presentations about the most favourite focusses commonly studied in Adult Education. The presenters´ names: Reina., Anyerlin & Becerrit., Eduardo. We all hope you read it carefully and make most of it.
This slide is special for master students (MIBS & MIFB) in UUM. Also useful for readers who are interested in the topic of contemporary Islamic banking.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

How to Build a Module in Odoo 17 Using the Scaffold MethodCeline George
Odoo provides an option for creating a module by using a single line command. By using this command the user can make a whole structure of a module. It is very easy for a beginner to make a module. There is no need to make each file manually. This slide will show how to create a module using the scaffold method.

A pedagogic grammar is a description of how to
use the grammar of a language to communicate,
for people wanting to learn the target language.
It can be compared with a reference grammar,
which just describes the grammar of the
language. Pedagogic grammars contain
assumptions about how learners learn, follow
certain linguistic theories in their descriptions,
and are written for a specific target audience.

is the collection of prescriptive rules and concepts about
the structure of language that is commonly taught in schools.
Traditional English grammar (also known as school grammar) is
largely based on the principles of Latin grammar, not on current
linguistic research in English. In linguistics, a traditional
grammar is a framework for the description of the structure of
language. Traditional grammars are commonly used in
language education.

"We say that traditional grammar is
prescriptive because it focuses on the
distinction between what some people do
with language and what they ought to do
with it, according to a pre-established
standard. . . . The chief goal of traditional
grammar, therefore, is perpetuating a
historical model of what supposedly
constitutes proper language."
7.
The primary purpose of speaking and writing is to communicate
with others. Grammar is simply the commonly accepted
methods of organizing and expressing words and phrases so
that the intended meaning is easily and successfully
communicated. As long as accepted grammar rules are
followed,
the
communication
can
be
successful.
However, when the grammar rules are not followed fairly
closely, it can become awkward for the listener to hear the
intended message. It is as if they are having to walk through a
verbal obstacle course to reach the destination, the meaning of
the communication. Misuse of grammar can also convey to the
reader or listener that the communicator is not educated or not
intelligent. Improper use of grammar is used by writers when
they are attempting to show a lack of refinement in their
characters.

Firstly, it is prescriptive in nature, attempting to lay down rules for speakers
of a language.
Secondly, its grammatical categories are merely based on European
languages and are found inadequate in describing other languages.
Thirdly, it lacks a theoretical framework and thus fails to account for the
nature of language.
It has given a distorted view of what language is, placing priority on rules
rather than on functions of communication.
Language is not a math. (Is there such a thing a 'traditional grammar'?)
Though grammar can help, in the same way maths can help in Biology or
other sciences.
The grammar of English is constantly changing (oxymoronically).
Though, one could argue that there is a universal grammar, as was thought
in the Baroque and Classical eras, more esp. with music.

In spite of focusing on functional grammar Traditional
grammar being full of short comings is still in use because of
our system being based on it and. To sum up I would like to
quote Fries who says about Traditional grammarians thus:
“Not insightful, prescientific, prescriptive
and having a literary bias, they are full of
inadequacies there may be about 200
definitions of a sentences yet they are not
able to differentiate between “The dog is
barking and The barking dog.”
