Well, you didn't learn to talk on your own, but from your parents and other people around you. It's the same with music.


Right, and when you asked your parents/teachers/those around you about aspect of the language you were speaking, did they tell you to not worry about it and just feel it? Or did they explain, well this part of grammar is called an X, and we use it to modify Y, which in turn is a part of Z - such that you could better understand it, communicate it to others better, and generalise the specific thing you'd intuitively learned to a wider aspect of language?


Ever tried to explain (or learn) when to use word "the" using grammar rules?

Some of the grammar rules are sometimes useful to general public.
