Japanese dictionary coordination/Grammar terminology

From Fresh Dictionary

Translation from: pl:Terminologia gramatyczna języka japońskiego

The Japanese language is not an Indoeuropean language, and it differs a lot from them; therefore, trying to use linguistic terms that weren't originally meant for it can cause a lot of misunderstanding.

For many concepts there exist lots of English (and Polish) names, and even worse - some may apply to more than one concept.
