The normal 'correct spelling' is glamour - English - or glamor in American!

But if the word is to be used as you spelled it, then you must be being 'poetic' - in which case it can be used as a "rough rhyme'' to the word "grammar".

There are many similarities between the words "glammour" and "grammar". Firstly, both words start with the letter "g." Secondly they both end with the letter "r." Most importantly, both contain the letters "a", "m" and another "m" in the middle. This, in addition to the similar ending sounds the "our" and "ar" make, causes the words to rhyme. In conclusion, these two words have many similarities.

In the Eastern U.S., it is not silent. In the Southwest, it is sometimes (incorrectly) silent. In Georgia, people don't use "vulnerable" because they don't understand what the word means, and so it is hard to say if the "L" would be pronounced or not. (Sorry, I'm all disillusioned about the pathetic state of public education in Georgia, today.)

Huh?

Glamour (not glammour) means excitement,alluring,romantic
pleasing to look at.

Grammar is the study of a language and how to use words to form a sentence.

There is no such word as glammour. So it isn't related to anything.
If you mean 'glamor' or 'glamour' (depending on which variety of English you speak) there is no known relationship and no common root.

"glamour" is a Scottish variation of "grammar" (with sense of GRAMARYE), popularize by Sir Walter Scott; originally especially in "Cast the Glamour"(to cast en enchantment).
