The word 'grammar' is a noun. A noun functions as the subject of a sentence or clause, and as the direct or indirect object of a verb or the object of a preposition.

Examples:

  • The grammar used in some of these questions needs to be improved. (subject of the sentence)
  • The impression that your grammar conveys is as important as your attire. (subject of the relative clause)
  • Some do use grammar correctly. (direct object of the verb)
  • You can always improve your first impression with good grammar. (object of the preposition 'with')

A noun can also function as:

  • The only problem is his grammar. (a subject complement, a noun or a pronoun following a linking verb that restates the subject)
  • He has a problem, his grammar. (an object complement, a noun that follows and restates a direct object)
  • His grammar exercises are paying off. (an attributive noun, a noun that functions as an adjective to describe another noun)
