Hello Yogi,

Welcome to EnglishForward.............

What ever you speak or write or read should have grammar. What if you say without grammar 'I am go to market' instead of 'I am going to market'. And it is said to be grammar.

Thanks.

As long as you have the basic word order right and use simple constructions, you'll always be able to make yourself understood even if the grammar is horrible, e.g. using incorrect tenses, omitting prepositions, or forgetting the articles. English is a forgiving language in many ways.

Having said that, you should always strive to speak correct English. While native speakers will often bend the rules and use outright ungrammatical constructions, such colloquial speech is best avoided unless you have a firm command of the language already.

If you will have very little need to interact with English speakers, and then only in superficial ways, as a tourist, for example, then you can probably ignore grammar completely, and just memorize the usual phrases for ordering in a restaurant, arranging sleeping accommodations, and the like.

But if you will have more interaction in which you will have to put your own thoughts into language -- for example, if you want to make friends with English speakers -- then you will need all the grammar you can possibly absorb. No matter what the language, when you speak it very poorly from lack of a sense of its grammar, you will find that the native speakers will want to have little to do with you and will put up with you only insofar as is absolutely necessary. You will feel isolated as a result.
