MIEJSCE GRAMATYKI KONTRASTYWNEJ W PROCESIE NAUCZANIA JĘZYKA OBCEGO
THE PLACE OF CONTRASTIVE GRAMMAR IN THE PROCESS OF LANGUAGE TEACHING

Summary/Abstract: In determining the place of contrastive grammar (having a purely practical nature) in the process of teaching a foreign language the author contrasts the analytical code with the synthetic, the linguistic material with habits of perception and presentations of texts, the technical with the technological production of texts, the text of communication with the text of language, linguistic equivalents with textual ones, syntactic syntagmations with the lexical.The special role of contrastive grammar, which in description of contrasts supercedes aparticular native language, begins with a switch from analysis to synthesis i.e. when theforeign language ceases to be material for study and becomes a means of conveying in ¬formation. Contrastive grammar, in the author’s opinion, can have great practical significance. However, under certain conditions it w ill be simultaniously a functional grammar, analysing the language in the form of a text as its functional contrasts above all are essential in the process of language communication.
