What is the difference between "Bunpo" and "Gurama"? Bunpo looks like it's written Kanji, while Gurama certainly is in Katakana. Based on Google Translate, they both mean "grammar" in Japanese. I am learning Japanese right now. Domo arigatou gozaimasu.

Bunpo and Gurama refer to the same thing, that is, "grammar". The only difference is the way it is read and written. "Bunpo" or ぶんぽう or 文法 is a native-origin word that means the rules of language constructs while "Gurama" or グラマ is a non native-origin word and is written in katakana for this foreign word "grammar"
