It is little bit different from written grammar. When we write English, we try to follow all grammar rules properly. But when we speak, we don’t always speak in full correct sentences. We use short forms, simple structures and sometimes we leave some words. Spoken grammar is very important because in real life we mostly speak more than we write.
