The average individual only has a vocabulary of about 1500 words and that is more than enough to speak effectively. You don't need to use hard-to-crack or sophisticated words in order to sound good . It will, in most cases, just make you sound like a nerd and the listener would miss the point. So, to...

The average individual only has a vocabulary of about 1500 words and that is more than enough to speak effectively. You don't need to use hard-to-crack or sophisticated words in order to sound good . It will, in most cases, just make you sound like a nerd and the listener would miss the point. So, to answer your question, I would say, not grammar or the rules of grammar but your grammatical correctness would be more important and believe it or not, that can be achieved WITHOUT studying grammar :) read less

Very interesting question. It's same as choosing what's more important to build a wall- Good Cement or Bricks? Let me answer you my friend- Both are equally important for speaking and writing skills. Both play irreplaceable role in the language learning. Instead of asking which one is important, a right question for you should be "if you are weak at Grammar or vocabulary". Answer to this would identify the first step for you. And then you can definitely progress to other aspects of language learning. To identify a student's weak and strong areas in language, a trainer plays an important role. If you feel you need assistance in improving your language skills, please contact me as I deliver classes for Spoken English. Happy learning! read less

More Grammar is required for the written form of language. Grammar also used to build sentences along with words. Less or basic grammar is enough for spoken form and I go with Mr.Santhosh that not even learning grammar is required for spoken language. Vocabulary is must and important for both the for...

Well simply put, Grammar is the set of rules that words have to follow to make meaning, while vocabulary is the very collection of words which are meant to follow these rules. So , Grammar and Vocabulary are intertwined with each other and have little importance without the other.
