I drove away from the dance thinking that I would only stay for a little while at the party.

Micro skills in writing are using grammar that is acceptable, using cohesive devices in written discourse, the ability to express a meaning in different grammatical forms. Some macro skills are make a distinction between literal and implied meanings, use writing strategies, and show the connection between events.
His lexical skills were far better than anyone in the company. This is an example of word for lexical. The instructor defended throwing a book at me to wake me up by saying that he was using a lexical approach.
Lexical awareness = knowledge of vocabulary (word meanings)
Cohesive devices in English are things in a story that keep the reader on a certain subject. Paragraphs within a chapter that relate to each other are a form of cohesive device.

Coherence and cohesion are two important parts in written discourse. As to any genres or registers, the writters need to be aware of the devices of cohesion inclusive of grammatical cohesion and lexical cohesion. Besides the structures of sentences and grammar, lexical cohesive devices help build up a coherent text. The reader will find it comfortable and patient to concentrate on a long text with such a group of magical vocabulary. N.T.T (martinrose)
Sure! Some English cohesive devices include conjunctions (e.g. and, but, or), pronouns (e.g. he, she, it), transitional phrases (e.g. however, therefore, in addition), and lexical cohesion (repetition of words or synonyms).
Cohesive devices in a poem can include repetition (repeating words or phrases), parallelism (using similar grammatical structures), enjambment (continuing a sentence beyond the end of a line), and alliteration (repeating consonant sounds). These devices help create unity and flow within the poem.
Lexical words are nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs. Grammatical words are determiners, pronouns, auxiliaries and modals, prepositions, conjunctions. That's all I remember.
There is no grammatical difference between two nouns. If they have different meaning, then there is a lexical difference.
Lexical and grammatical

Its error is not grammatical, but lexical. "Amid" is the wrong word.
Essentially, language learning is divided into four skill areas: listening; reading; speaking and writing. There are countless sub-skills that can get into a lot of linguistic jargon. Scanning and skimming are reading sub-skills, but there is also 'recognising cognates' and 'utilising cohesive devices to recognise morphological and lexical forms' and such.
A lexical verb is the main verb of the sentence. All verbs include a lexical verb. A lexical verb does not require an auxiliary verb, but an auxiliary verb exists only to help a lexical verb. It cannot exist alone. A lexical verb is a verb that provides information. The opposite of lexical verbs are auxiliary verbs, which provide grammatical structure. Lexical verbs are an open class type of verb and are used to express states and actions. Such verbs are also known as main verbs. The main role of the lexical verb is to be the main verb of the sentence. The verb provides the reader or listener with key information linking the subject and the object. While many auxiliary verbs can also be main verbs, lexical verbs such as "play," "paint" and "record" stand out because they give very specific information and are always the lexical verb.
