Abstract. Teaching English grammar at the explication stage nowadays is based mainly on the principles of logical and structural-semantic analysis, which often does not help students to understand the essence of the analyzed phenomenon and to integrate it in their foreign-language experience and thinking. The article shows the potential of cognitive-semantic analysis of the word for teaching English grammatical units by the example of the so called sequence of tenses.
