However, mastering grammar causes many difficulties, which are compounded by grammatical rules and a vast expanse of exceptions. The tendency of students' negative attitude to grammar is increasing, which negatively affects their communicative competence. In addition, the most difficult stage in the formation of grammatical skill is the stage of its application in speech activity.
