Grammatical competence can be helpful in producing accurate forms of language and acts in monitoring its use. However, one can communicate more or less a message with vocabulary items alone while it is impossible to do so using grammar alone.In addition, language use can be tremendously affected by conscious language usage as this may create a stressful environment. In general, research indicates that a combination of form and meaning may be the best teaching approach. This is supported by CelceMurcia,Dornyei and Thurrell who suggest that the integration of form and meaning is gaining importance in what they refer to as the 'principled communicative approach.' Musumeci went on further to say that students should learn grammar explicitly but should also be given the opportunity to practice them icommunicative authentic and simulated tasks.
