I agree with most of the others. If you search on Fry words you can find Dr Edward Fry - presumably he identified the commonest words.

The words "are" and "is" are present tense of the verb "to be". If you have ever seen the Schoolhouse Rock animated shorts, they'll tell you what such words are all about.

You might mean "grammar", the rules of which are divided into "semantics" (about the meanings of words) and "syntax" (about types of word, such as verbs, nouns, pronouns, etc.).
Alternatively you could be thinking of "taxonomy", which is about classification.

Personally I think the word "lexicon" is more apt, it refers to a specific vocabulary for situations. i.e. Business lexicon.
