About English Grammar
It is said that grammar is a kind of tool that makes sentences formed well in
syntactic aspect. According to this point of view, it seems that grammar is a sensor
checking out whether sentences are well-structured or not. However, as the sensor
does not function after sentences are already made but while they are organized, it is reasonable to consider grammar as internal knowledge itself rather than as the apparatus that sensors sentences.
Noam Chomsky has been suggesting that there must be a universal grammar that all people have in common. Nobody knows if the universal grammar exists. But one fact all people can agree with is that the native speakers of each language can make perfect sentences without learning certain grammar. About two weeks ago, I asked one of my cousins - who has lived in the U.S since she was 3 years old - the different usage between ‘be going to’ and ‘will’. Then she told me "You don’t have to know that, there are subtle differences in meaning but I can’t explain them accurately". This is just like we Koreans can’t distinguish the meaning of ‘na-neun’ from that of ‘nae-ga’.
