TEMA 12 La Gramatica
The grammars of all languages are similar; the differences are not
random but represent systematic choices from the alternative ways in
which the mind can use language.
What does this mean for our understanding of how people learn
second languages and how they should be taught? The overall lesson
is that the learner´s minds construct grammars for themselves and
teaching provides the means to do it. Teaching can do little about
changing the sequence of acquisition but has to work round it. The
crucial thing for teaching appears to be the choice of particular
sentences as input for the learners so that they can set the
parameters naturally for themselves.

grammar; secondly, we reflect on the subject throughout the
fundamental methods used from linguistics; and finally, we reflect on
people’s rejection to grammar, causes and avoidance.
