It depends.  Often what people call "grammar changes" also means a
subtle rewording and not only adding a missing "s", etc.  This gives
work to translators.  A translator reads every commit, so he will spend
more or less time on any commit.
Anyway, if your changes are not mandatory or not simple grammar or typos
fix, you should postpone them.
