Head grammar is a term often associated with linguistic theory, particularly within the framework of generative grammar. It refers to a type of grammar that focuses on the structural role of heads in phrases. In this context, a "head" is a key word that defines the type of phrase it is. For example, in a noun phrase, the noun serves as the head; in a verb phrase, the verb is the head.
