>Interesting and all, but that deals with a completely different topic. There is no explanation in that article as to why such a word as 'grammatical' even exists, considering that 'grammatic' means the same thing. Grammatic is already an adjective - ie - grammatic error. So why do we suffix it with 'al' in order to turn it into an adjective when it already is an adjective?

I am trying to remember hearing or seeing the word "grammatic" used. (The closest I can come is Martin Gramatica, the NFL placekicker who blew his knee out celebrating a made kick).
