Chain has something to do with the syntax. Or in other words, chain is the horizontal arrangement of words. We have a definite system of arranging words in order. Arranging words in an English sentence is called chain.

Example.

I have a cat.

(This is the grammatically right sentence. Here, the words are in the right order.

Subject is before the verb and the object is on the right place as well)

There is no error of chain in this sentence, we can say that.

Now examine another sentence....

To Amjad goes Lahore.

This sentence has error of chain because the word order is not according to the grammar rules.

Hope you have understood the concept of chain.

Choice:

It is replacing words with words.

For example...

He has a pen.

She has a computer.

They have many computers.

All these three sentences have the same chain but different choices (of words). I mean to say that without distrubing the chain of the sentence, we have substituted certain words. This selection of words is called choice.

Hope the ideas are clear now...............

Enjoy

Is it Necessary of grammar to learn a language?

Grammar is an intrinsic element of a language, the rules that explain how the language works. If you don't know the grammar, what exactly can you know of the language? Presumably, just a collection of words - the vocabulary. But you won't be able to express much with that. Your question illustrates this point quite neatly, in the case of the English language. Because you have not precisely grasped the required grammar, your question is not completely clear. I have guessed that you meant 'Is it necessary to understand the grammar of a language in order to learn the language?' But perhaps you didn't mean that - I don't know. The point is that if you understand grammar, your readers won't have to guess at your meaning: you will be able to make it unambiguous.
