Structural grammar focuses on analyzing the structure of sentences based on their constituent parts, such as subject, verb, and object. Transformational grammar, on the other hand, considers how sentences can be transformed from one form to another through rules and operations, such as passive and active voice transformations. Transformational grammar goes beyond just analyzing structure to explain how different forms are related.
Yes, structural grammar became popular in the early 20th century, while transformational grammar gained popularity in the mid-20th century, about thirty to forty years later.
Systemic Functional Grammar focuses on the grammatical structures in relation to their function in communication, emphasizing the role of context and meaning. Transformational Generative Grammar, on the other hand, focuses on the underlying abstract rules and structures that generate grammatical sentences. Systemic Functional Grammar is more concerned with how language is used in context, while Transformational Generative Grammar is more concerned with the abstract rules that govern language.
Systemic-Functional Grammar focuses on how language is used to convey meaning in different contexts, while Transformational-Generative Grammar focuses on the underlying structure of language and how sentences are generated. Systemic-Functional Grammar emphasizes the social function of language, whereas Transformational-Generative Grammar is more concerned with the universal rules that govern language.
Transformational generative grammar is a theory of grammar that aims to explain how native speakers generate and understand sentences. It focuses on transformational rules that generate sentences and transform them into different forms. This theory emphasizes the innate knowledge of language in humans and the idea that there is a universal grammar underlying all languages.
Examples of transformational grammars include Chomsky's phrase structure grammar and tree-adjoining grammar. These grammars employ transformational rules to generate sentences by transforming basic phrase structure trees according to specific syntactic operations. Transformational grammars are used in linguistics to study the underlying structure of language.

the three kinds of rules in generative transformational grammar are transformational, morphophonemic, and phrase structure
In linguistics, a transformational grammar, or transformational-generative grammar (TGG), is a generative grammar, especially of a natural language, that has been developed in a Chomskyan tradition. Additionally, transformational grammar is the Chomskyan tradition that gives rise to specific transformational grammars. Much current research in transformational grammar is inspired by Chomsky's Minimalist Program.[1]

Systemic functional grammar is grammar and use of language that is simple and to the point. It differs from transformational generative grammar by the latter being more emotive and inspirational in the words and language formats being used as opposed to being purely factual.

Lexis refers to the vocabulary or words used in a language, while grammar refers to the structure and rules governing how those words are organized and used in sentences. Lexis deals with individual words and their meanings, while grammar deals with the relationships between words and how they create meaning in a sentence. In essence, lexis is the content of language, while grammar is the framework that organizes and structures that content.
The body of words/vocabulary.
