A questionnaire about grammar view was carried out among teachers of the Japanese language in China. From the view of the teachers, we can divide their opinion into 3 groups; 1) the positive classifying opinion to classify grammar in elementary, intermediate and advanced level, 2) the negative classifying opinion that the items of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test can affect the grammar classification from elementary to advanced level, and 3) the negative classifying opinion that there is no distinction. Some informants replied they do not feel a difference between elementary, intermediate and advanced grammar from the position of the student. The fact that Chinese native teachers of the Japanese language consider advanced grammar as "not for daily use" is an important key to redefine advanced grammar.
