What are grammatical names and functions and why is it important to learn them? There are various units of grammar in English, and they have their specific names: morphemes, words, phrases, clauses, and sentences. Your knowledge of English grammar has to do with being able to identify these grammatical units one by one. For example, English words are classified into the 8 parts of speech, and they have their specific names: nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, prepositions, conjunctions, and interjections. English phrases are classified into noun phrases, adverbial phrases, adjectival phrases, prepositional phrases, etc. The clauses are noun clause, adverbial clause, and adjectival/relative clause. The sentence, which is the largest grammatical unit, is also classified into different classes: simple sentences, compound sentences, complex sentences, compound-complex sentences, multiple sentences, and multiple complex sentences. Learning these various grammatical names is very important, and learning the functions they perform in English sentences is equally important.
