I'm browsing web searching for english language grammar, but i found only few simple examples like:
s -> np vp np -> det n vp -> v | v np det -> 'a' | 'the' n -> 'woman' | 'man' v -> 'shoots' Maybe I don't realise how big this problem is because i tought that grammar has been formalised. Can somebody provide me a source for some expanded formal english grammar?

A formal grammar is defined as a set of production rules for such strings in a formal language. Formal language theory, the discipline that studies formal grammars and languages, is a branch of applied mathematics.
There are three elements of language: syntax. semantics. pragmatics.
Formal language is less personal than informal language. It is used when writing for professional or academic purposes like graduate school assignments. Formal language does not use colloquialisms, contractions or first-person pronouns such as “I” or “We.” Informal language is more casual and spontaneous.
Have a look at the English Resource Grammar, which you can use with the LKB or PET
