GRAMMARS IN TESTIMONIALISM

I use a definition of grammar that limits semantic content to the grammatical operations available.

0) Universal Grammar: (serial, continuous, recursive, disambiguation)

1) Grammar: Limited to dimensions of reality.

2) Semantics: Vocabulary within the limits of the Grammar

So you can look at language the old way: semantics on up. Or you can look at language the new way, grammars on down.

So when I use ‘grammar’ it is closer to ‘means of communication, advocacy, persuasion, argument, and rejection’.
