Etymology
'grammar-oriented' is a compound word formed by combining 'grammar' and 'oriented'. 'Grammar' originates from the Greek word 'grammatikē', meaning 'art of letters', and 'oriented' comes from the Latin 'orientare', meaning 'to arrange or align'.
The term 'grammar-oriented' evolved in modern English to describe a focus or emphasis on grammar.
Initially, 'oriented' meant 'aligned or directed towards', and when combined with 'grammar', it evolved to mean 'focused on grammar'.
