Words are meant to be our basic form of understanding. Sentences are meant to be the formation of expressing those words. And grammar completes the structure of these two with proper composition of rules for better understanding. But why grammar is too complicated to learn? Why do language need grammar? Are we really understanding grammar as it is supposed to be? These questions are constantly brought up when level of difficulty comes at hand. But as a boundless learner, these questions are changed into positive impressions. The ingenuity of brain forms our curiosity into eagerness and the creativity of mind molds our character into abilities. Grammar is the art of language. It is the essential ingredient to learn any language. The aesthetic beauty of every part of speech captures the essence of style in communication. Apparently, all art forms have set of skills to understand and practice makes it more refined. It is just like an art sculpture. Materials, tools and expertise are needed to do such artistry. Basic rules are set on choosing the materials, there are controls and proper instructions on using the tools, and knowledge with practice are needed for the required skills on doing it. If everything has a purpose, everything has also a function. It can be on a step-by-step process of understanding. It can also be in any way that learners can be convenient and motivated. Twist and turns of learning grammar depends on who wants to learn. Everything starts from scratch but definitely needs to finish with a picture perfect success. Both teachers and learners start by recognizing what are the aspects of grammar. Reading, writing, listening and speaking skills must be established. Time should not be a pressure to anyone. Somehow, the development process of learning these might be the struggle. This is where the learning design must be well-planned, creative, interesting and effective. Books are the main source of knowledge to learn grammar but the method on how will you comprehend with it is the challenging part. This stage is where teachers become artists or performers to establish the energy. The artistic expressions, gestures and even basic efforts are helpful to motivate the learning process. The softness of your voice can be magical to children, the simple snaps from your fingers can be a sign for young adults and the yells can be disturbing to grownups. “Paper and pen must be handled well as every curve spells what they need to dwell”. The difficulty of understanding decreases through art. Creativity opens their imagination and becomes motivated. The struggle becomes determination to fluency and accuracy. The effectiveness of language can be seen on everyday life. As we communicate, we practice. As we give response, we learn. Unknowingly, we get used of it without hesitations. It is learning by doing and not just by overthinking from your own questions. Learning can be fun and grammar can be more exciting. We cannot live without art, so as to say, we cannot live without language. For diversity, grammar serves as the book of the living.
