Background of Grammar

Translation Method

The grammatical-translation method of foreign language teaching is one of the most traditional methods, dating back to the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

The GTM was widely used in the USA in 1890’s. It was also called the Classical Method since it was first used in the teaching of classical languages, Latin and Greek.

Principles of Grammar

Translation Method

A fundamental purpose of teaching the target language through the GTM is to be able to read literature written in the target language.

Principally, the GTM focuses on translating grammatical forms, memorizing vocabulary, learning rules and studying conjugations.

There were a number of attempts to improve the teaching of languages.

One attempt was suggested by Meidenger (1783), who advocated translation into the target language through the application of rules of grammar.

Karl Plotz (1819-1881) also improve the teaching method; his method was divided into two parts: (1) rules and paradigms, and (2) sentence for translation into and out of the target language.
