I find your article very interesting to read. It will be an understatement for me to say I gained something from it but, I do not wholly agree with you.
I am of the opinion that each compliments the other as communication will be virtually dead without at least a little knowledge of the grammar of the particular language in question.
Eg.
- Who door the at?
- Who at the door?
- Who is at the door?
While the first and second sentences are both grammatically wrong, some people wil still be able to grasp what the speaker is saying in the second sentence because of the arrangement of words which has a relation to the grammar of any language.
I therefore think that neither communication nor grammar can function in any known human language on its own.
