According to Wikipedia,

''In linguistics, grammar (from Greek: γραμματική) is the set of structural rules governing the composition of clauses, phrases, and words in any given natural language. The term refers also to the study of such rules, and this field includes phonology, morphology, and syntax, often complemented by phonetics, semantics, and pragmatics. ''

Spelling is, according to Wikipedia,

''Spelling is the combination of alphabetic letters to form a written word. It is a linguistic process of correct writing with the necessary letters and diacritics present in a comprehensible, usually standardized order. While a part of a language's orthography, not all languages have purely phonemic alphabets. Standardized spelling is a prescriptive element. ''

Pronounciation is how you say a word.

Spelling is how you arrange letters to form a written word.

Grammar is how you arrange words to form a sentence.

Of course, spelling and grammar are intertwined, but neither is a subset of the other. For example, Japanese has a concept called keigo. In Japanese, Kiite ii? is more informal than the longer Kikasete-itadakeru to ureshii no desu ga. They mean the same thing, but the former translates roughly to "Ok to ask (a question)," while the latter translates roughly to " I would, however, be delighted if I may be permitted to ask (a question)." However, it is important to know that spelling, grammar, and pronounciation are different. Also, if you have not used periods since high school, then that indicates that you did not graduate college or even reach high school, but that you're in 6th grade suffering from chuunibyou. That means "Middle School Second Year Syndrome" in Japanese. That year is equivalent to 8th grade in the United States. Now shoo, Amelia411.
