Abstract

In the teaching of foreign languages, after all the attempts and reforms, the understanding has been increasingly strengthened that without reliable linguistic knowledge it is impossible to achieve strong linguistic communication skills, which were considered the goal of teaching foreign languages, and that grammatical skills play an important role in the development of language skills. The role of grammar in teaching foreign languages is ambiguous. Grammar skills are equally important for speaking, writing, reading and listening. Grammar is a language stimulant. It generates meaning through relationships between lexical items. In this paper, we will try to show through theory all the possibilities of conducting a lesson with the maximum study of grammar, as well as to imagine how this actually happens in practice. We investigate which method is more often used in classes on the grammar of German as a foreign language. Particular attention is paid to deductive and inductive methods.
