| SYNTAX is the way in which words are put together to form phrases,
phrases to form clauses and clauses to form sentences and the
grammatical rules that govern the way this occurs.
The syntax of a word is determined first by knowledge of the part of speech and morphology of a word. Then the word must be understood within the context of the clause and sentence surrounding it. |
