Grammatical Necessity and Origin – A Historical Perspective

இலக்கணத் தேவையும் தோற்றமும் – ஒரு வரலாற்றுப் பார்வை

Abstract

Since ancient times, the origin of grammar has been created from literature. The origin of this grammar is the language of the people, called the dialect, and the literary forms used by the people, called poetry. The grammarians who tried to understand the system of the language, through their intelligence, have developed into grammar. The roots of the grammarians who created such grammar are different, and the grammars created and recited by them through the hereditary tradition are taught with their religious background stories that came after it. From a linguistic perspective, the grammar based on the structure of the language has two different periods. Grammar emerged from literature and later, through the grammar that was formed, new literatures have been formed. The origin of literature was formed in the land where the dialect and poetry of the language were formed through folk literatures. The people of that land created grammar to see the structure of their language. It is believed that a foreigner who came on behalf of a religious and political background dared to see the structure of the language due to ideology and rule and created the first grammar and then the grammar developed. This study is a study on the original origin of grammar.
