Syntax The syntax of a particular language is its grammar.
They are the rules for what kinds of words, parts of
a language, or vocabulary you can put in what order.
In English, for example, you cannot simply put four
nouns together and call it a sentence. “ horse bag
tomato teeth” in mathematics, there are rules for the
order that symbols can be put together in.
Just because a particular string of vocabulary
is incorrect syntax for one language it does not
mean that it is incorrect for another. Example
“car on part”, maybe incorrect syntax for
english but it is correct syntax for french.
 What Is Syntax?
A syntax is putting together words into groups of words or sentence and
group of words into sentence.
From syntax there are several parts of the structure. Namely :
• Subject, a person or thing that is being discussed, describe, or dealt
with.
• Verb, verbs are the action words in a sentence that describe what the
subject is doing
• Object, a material thing that can be seen and touched
• Complement, a thing that completes or brings to perfection
• Adverb, a word or phrase that modifies or qualifies an adjective,
verb, or other adverb or a word group, expressing a relation of place,
time, etc.
 SYNTAX CATEGORY
•Nouns, nouns is a word used to identify any of a class of people,
places, or things, or to name a particular one of these.
•Verb, verbs are the action words in a sentence that describe what
the subject is doing
•Adverb, a word or phrase that modifies or qualifies an adjective,
verb, or other adverb or a word group, expressing a relation of
place, time, etc.
•Adjective, a word or phrase naming an attribute, added to or
grammatically related to a noun to modify or describe it.
•Proposition, a statement or assertion that expresses a judgement or
opinion
 SYNTAX SENTENCE TYPE

• Simple sentence ( a simple sentence contains a

single clause )
Example: sam bought the ticket
• Compound sentence (a compound sentence
contains two independent clause joined by
conjunction)
Example: i want to buy a new house, so i started
to save my money
• Complex sentence ( a complex sentence contains
an independent clause and dependent clause)
Example: if you talk too loud, i will be deaf
4. Declarative sentence, makes a statement about something. A person,

place, thing, or idea.

Example: his name is john
5. introgative sentence, this sentences make a sentences to be a
question
example: did the child eat the dinner?
6. Imprative sentence, give command or make request, most often these
sentence end with priods. However, imprative sentence with stronger
emotion and wtih an exclamation point.
Example: eat the dinner
7. exclamatory sentence, demonstrate strong feelings or emotions and,
end with exlamation point. Beginning with the word what or how
example: how beutiful she is!
 SYNTATIX LEVEL

Sentence => a sentence is not simply as string of

words, one after another.

Clause => a group of words which form a gramatical

unit and which contain a subject and
finiite verb.
Phrase => a group of words that have a function as a
unitin a sentence.

Words => a word is the smaliest element that can be

uttered in isolation with objective or
pratical meaning
 Syntax stucture
Levels of syntactic representation There are a number of phenomena which
have been represented as justifying the postulation of multiple levels of
syntactic representation. Since the motivation for multiple levels of
syntactic representation is entirely theory-internal, there is no empirical
fact in any human language that can disprove their existence.
Universal aspects of structure The authors are presenting a single-
level theory of syntactic structure that is part of a theory of universal
grammar, it is imperative that they base it on notions that are universals.
These two requirements are summarized in. This is the problem of
identifying correspondences, in particular corresponding structures, across
languages. This is a problem which all theory concerned with cross-
linguistic comparison face.
