Practical grammar refers to the application of grammatical rules in real-life communication rather than just
theoretical knowledge. It focuses on how grammar functions in spoken and written contexts, ensuring that learners
can effectively use grammatical structures in everyday conversations, academic writing, and professional settings. By
integrating grammar into meaningful communication, learners can develop fluency and accuracy, making their English
more natural and effective. This study emphasizes the importance of learning grammar in a way that directly contributes
to real-world language proficiency.
