What are the process of grammar?

I'm not sure if this answers your question, but here's a quick introduction to minimalist grammar. Take the sentence I was walking to the field when I saw a gigantic kangaroo. Then you divide it into morphemes: I was walk ing to the field when I saw a gigantic kangaroo. N V V A P D N Ab N V D A N (where N stands for noun, V for verb, A for adjective, P for preposition, D for determiner, and Ab for adverb). What happens is the grammar starts collapsing. Two kinds of words directly next to each other will combine as a single unit and perform the grammatical function of one of the words in the pair, e.g. (A+N)>N or (P+N)>P. Also, (N+V) can > S for sentence. So (walk ing) > A, (the field) > N, (gigantic kangaroo) > N. I was (walking) to (the field) when I saw a (gigantic kangaroo). N V A P N Ab N V D N. Now (to the field)>P, (a gigantic kangaroo)>N I was (walking) (to the field) when I saw (a gigantic kangaroo) N V A P Ab N V N (walking to the field)>A, (saw a gigantic kangaroo)>V I was (walking to the field) when I (saw a gigantic kangaroo). N V A Ab N V (was walking to the field)>V, (I saw a gigantic kangaroo)>S. I (was walking to the field) when (I saw a gigantic kangaroo). N V Ab S (when I saw a gigantic kangaroo)>Ab I (was walking to the field) (when I saw a gigantic kangaroo). N V Ab (was walking to the field when I saw a gigantic kangaroo)>V I (was walking to the field when I saw a gigantic kangaroo) N V (I was walking to the field when I saw a gigantic kangaroo)>S!
