Word grammar is a grammar model developed by Richard Hudson in the 1980s. It is based on the dependency grammar model, in which information is almost entirely contained in the lexical entries for particular words, and syntax is seen as consisting primarily of rules for combining words. The central syntactic relation is that of dependency between words; constituent structure is not recognized except in the special case of coordinate structures. Statements about words and their properties form a complex network of propositions. Dependency grammar (DG) is a class of syntactic theories separate from generative grammar. ...
Word grammar is in the tradition of cognitive linguistics, modeling language as part of general knowledge and not as a specialised mental faculty. This is in contrast to transformational grammar, introduced by Noam Chomsky. Cognitive linguistics is a school of linguistics and cognitive science, which aims to provide accounts of language that mesh well with current understandings of the human mind, and is generally opposed to the more syntactocentric approaches to meaning in generative linguistics. ... Transformational grammar is a broad term describing grammars (almost exclusively those of natural languages) which have been developed in a Chomskyan tradition. ...
