grammar guides
Syntax reference books
Grammar guides are reference materials explaining the rules and conventions of a language—how to form sentences, use punctuation, and avoid common errors.
They range from comprehensive style manuals to quick-reference handbooks: I checked the grammar guide on comma usage.
Unlike dictionaries, which focus on individual words, grammar guides address how words work together.
