A grammar rule is when you have a rule of grammar which makes your English correct for example; Emma said "Turn on the light please" (correct) Emma said Turn on the light please (wrong) because you have not used speech marks which is breaking a grammar rule because the grammar rule you are breaking is to always use speech marks when someone is talking!
