  1. they are divided into
    1. bad
      1. reasons
        1. because it´s there
          1. but
            1. the grammar points may not all be equally important for everyone
              1. it is important to choose grammar points relevant to student´s needs
                1. designed for students with
                  1. different purposes
                    1. different environment
                      1. different native language
                        1. different problems
                        2. the book plays a very important role
                  2. It´s tidy
                    1. vocabulary is vast and untidy
                      1. systematize in
                        1. pronunciation
                          1. is a system of
                            1. phonemes
                              1. allophones
                                1. syllable structure
                            2. according to
                              1. Tom McArthur
                                1. is that part of a student which is the same at the end of a language course as at the beginning
                            3. grammar
                              1. can be presented as
                                1. limited series of tidy things which students can learn, apply in exercises, and tick off one by one
                                  1. learning grammar is a lot simpler than learning a language
                                2. semantic fields
                                  1. superordinates
                                    1. hyponyms
                                      1. notional/functional categories
                          2. it´s testable
                            1. test
                              1. shows
                                1. whether students are learning and whether teachers are teaching properly
                                2. is time-consuming and dificult design and administer
                                  1. grammar = short cut
                                3. grammar as a security blanket
                                  1. grammar can be
                                    1. reassuring and comforting
                                    2. good grammar doesn´t mean a studen is fluent
                                    3. it made me who I am
                                      1. past generation overvalue grammar
                                      2. you have to teach the whole system

                                                      1. how much of the rest is important?
