Eagle-eyed blog readers may notice that in my previous posts about grammar, I did not capitalize “grammar” except at the beginning of sentences and in the titles. This is because in the world of linguistics, there is a difference between “grammar” and “Grammar”.
grammar with a small g, refers to language specific patterns and structures.
Grammar with a capital G, refers to Universal Grammar.

Korean-American girl who blogs under a Spanish pseudonym because being culturally confusing is fun. Native speakers say that she has outstanding Spanish (which is a definite compliment) and outstanding German (which is most assuredly not).
