What is another word for phrase structure grammar?
Pronunciation: [fɹˈe͡ɪz stɹˈʌkt͡ʃə ɡɹˈamə] (IPA) 
Phrase structure grammar is a linguistic framework that characterizes the structure of sentences by dividing them into phrases. Synonyms for phrase structure grammar include constituency grammar, dependency grammar, and tree-adjoining grammar. Constituency grammar is similar to phrase structure grammar, but emphasizes the hierarchical nature of sentence structure and how it is formed by combining smaller constituents. Dependency grammar, on the other hand, focuses on the relationships between individual words in a sentence rather than their grouping into phrases. Finally, tree-adjoining grammar is a formalism that extends phrase structure grammar by allowing for local transformations on larger structures. Each of these frameworks provides a different perspective on the underlying structure of sentences, offering insight into how language is organized and processed by the brain.
