We didn't distinguish the difference. The books were for Hebrew, and
to understand the Torah, we were taught Torah with the text of Rashi,
who did base many of his comments on grammar. Since then I have
learned that some of Chazal who explained Torah were known to be
famous "linguists" in Hebrew.
So I suppose, that the grammar I learned formally as such, applied to
spoken Hebrew, and to understand Torah, some grammar just kind of
seeped in, we learned to get a feel for the way Hashem expresses
Himself in the Torah, rather than the "rules"
