Grammar changes are when a part of the grammar of a language changes over time, so that the language now has a different way of accomplishing the same thing. For example, when French evolved from Latin it did not have a fixed word order, while it now does; much information that in Latin was conveyed by use of case, is conveyed by word order in modern French.
- parva mensa rufa non est.
- la petite table n'est pas rouge.
- the little table isn't red.
