Abstract

Emphasising the importance of grammar teaching and learning research, the academic study investigates the critical relevance of Grammar in scholarly communication. Using a bibliometric analysis of 297 papers from the Scopus database, the study investigates grammar teaching and learning, identifying developing trends, eminent authors, organisations, countries, and the main themes in grammar instruction and learning using innovative approaches. The study exposes trends and ongoing research topics using tools like Microsoft Excel, VOS Viewer, and Harzing, thus evaluating their influence. The classification of different clusters helps the study clarify overlooked research topics and offers intelligent suggestions for further grammar studies.
