If grammar is seen as studying the relations and architectures of language, such relations and structures would then have supports and anchors, forces and motions, features and property equivalencies, and roles galore just as a building or organixm has. If one treats grammar similarly to the descriptive disciplines of mathematics, logic and computation, then a possibly uncountable number of functions are present since language recklessly allows seemingly anything.
