Constituency grammar is a syntactic theory that views sentence structure as being hierarchical, with constituents such as nouns, verbs, and phrases forming a tree-like structure. It focuses on analyzing how words combine to form larger units in a sentence, known as constituents, and how these constituents relate to each other. This approach helps to understand the grammatical structure of sentences and relationships between different elements in a systematic way.

Communicative grammar is based on the communicative approach to the

Teaching of second/foreign languages. Language structures must not be taught

in isolation but integrated to the four skills of language: listening, speaking,

reading and writing. In this way a structure is practiced orally and In written

form. Grammatical patterns must not only be learned at the utterance level but

at the discourse level; the main objective focuses on the development of

communicative grammatical competence, which is understood as the ability to

use and understand a structure in a variety of situations spontaneously. The

approach calls for a certain balance between pre-communicative and

communicative activities: the first prepare the learner to handle the language

rules for actual communication and the latter enable him to use the structures

in real communication. The students must not only do drills and precommunicative

exercises in class, but they must interact and communicate

with other speakers when they use the patterns they are studying. Classes are

planned in a way that the students use the structures naturally and not

artificially, and they require time and practice to internalize those patterns by

using a process in which grammatical structures are recycled with more

complex variations.
