The grammar of a language studies the :

  • A.Sounds of that language
  • B.The classics written in that language
  • C.The vocabulary of that language
  • D.The sentences and only the well-formed sentences usable in that language

Answer: D

Grammar studies the sentences, and only the well-formed sentences, usable in that language.

In the generative view introduced by Chomsky, the grammar of a language is the system of rules that generates all and only the grammatical (well-formed) sentences of that language, and assigns each its structure.

The sounds of a language are studied by phonetics and phonology, and its vocabulary by lexicology. The classics written in a language are the subject of literary study, not grammar.
