Abstract: Jean Bosquet, master and headmaster at the Mons school for the poor, published a French grammar in 1586. The book is, even in its design, a pedagogical work, proceeding by questions and answers. This pragmatic approach to the functioning of the French language is illustrated by a large number of examples.
