Need of grammar learning

Grammar is an interesting part of English language. But learning grammar before learning language is not a good idea . Learning language means having command over basic skills of language such as listening, speaking, reading and writing. Learning of grammar does not enable you to speak English. But it makes your language polished and beautiful. Grammar learning should be started with observing sentences and coming over or forming the rules.
