Umm, that is a gross understatement. Hardly any English schoolchildren are taught grammar, let alone names for the rules of grammar. I learned grammar, back in the sixties; but not English grammar. Oh no - I had to take Latin classes, and that's where I learned grammar. "Grammar" is almost an obscene word, in modern English pedagogical circles. They get taught about "thing words" and "doing words".
