# Grammar sets

Grammar sets are groupings of grammar constructs used to identify potentially sensitive data in your environment. When you create datasets, you can select the grammar sets to apply. This lets you apply consistent grammar rules with less effort. You use grammars to search for or filter documents to include in a workbook or place on hold.

OpenText Core Data Discovery & Risk Insights includes built-in grammar sets that pertain to region-specific regulations that you can apply across datasets. For example, the "EU General Protection Regulation (UK)" grammar set contains grammar rules that identify data pertinent to GDPR and are specific to data patterns for the United Kingdom (addresses, phone numbers, bank details, and so on). Built-in grammar sets cannot be edited or deleted.
