Answer 1

Answer:

C. the rules of grammar

• The Grammar Translation Method emphasizes learning grammatical rules explicitly and memorizing vocabulary. Students typically translate sentences between the target language and their native language to understand grammar structures. This method prioritizes reading and writing skills, with less attention given to speaking and listening. It is teacher-centered and relies heavily on rote learning and translation exercises.
