    Lexicon-based words are ordinary words that are the basic building blocks of language and have clear meanings. Grammar-based words are function words that have little meaning on their own and include words like articles, prepositions, and conjunctions. Some example lexicon-based words included in the document are "dog", "traffic light", and "honorable dismissal". Grammar-based words have more ambiguous or uncertain meanings and help connect and structure sentences.
