It's grammAr. A grammar is a formal description of the structure of a
language. It is not a parser; rather it is a specification of what the
parser needs to do.
Perhaps if you describe your actual problem and say why you want to use
a grammar we can be of more help, either pointing you to a parsing
solution or helping to solve the problem without a formal parser. (Most
Python text processing problems can be solved with simple string
processing or regular expressions.)
