Is there relations between those theories and Stephen Krashen’s theories about language learning? I am a great fan of Krashen xD

This is one of the basis in the Lexical Approach! In my first book – Inglês na Ponta da Língua – this topic is also discussed! People have to understand that there are different categories of grammar. There is the Prescriptive Grammar which is the well-known one and there is the Internalized Grammar, the one people use it without knowing about the rules and all the metalinguistic terms to describe the functions and forms.

The day book authors, school owners, teacher and students understand that, learning English will be easier and faster!

For those interesting in reading more, just go for theories like The Communicative Approach and The Lexical Approach on the web! Such discussion has been around since the 1960s and it’s really wonderful!

Great! you could say(write) that again!
This post was awsome!
I totally agree with you. Grammar is of great help for people who are in a higher level. When teachers focus on that point at the beginning it often is very boring and also extremely disapponting.
So let’s SPEAK ENGLISH, shall we?

About your text: I believe that grammar can be used Parallel with the speak, but we need to improve this last more.

I think that’s it.

I think your are absolutely right! Beginners should not learn grammar, just learn words and frases and how to use these words and frases. When you reach an intermidiate level you can study grammar, read grammar, etc., in order to improve your skills. But the language study should focus more on comunication, which is done usuing words and frases, than on grammar rules. Great post!
