Syntax Material Fourth Group

Syntax refers to the rules that govern how words combine to form phrases, clauses, and sentences in a language. There are two important parts of a sentence in syntax analysis: phrases and clauses. Phrases include noun phrases, verb phrases, adjective phrases, and adverb phrases. Clauses include independent clauses, dependent clauses, noun clauses, adjective clauses, and adverbial clauses. Proper syntax involves constructing sentences that follow patterns like subject-verb-object and maintaining parallel structure, especially in lists.

What is syntax

In linguistics,” syntax” refers to rules that govern the ways in


which words combine to form phrases, clauses, and
sentences. The term “syntax” comes from the Greek, meaning
“arrange together”. The term is also used to mean the study of
the syntactic properties of a language.

Type of sentences structures
Types of sentences and their syntax modes
include simple sentences, compound
sentences, complex sentences, and compound
complex sentences. In English, a strong,
active voice sentence will always have the
subject doing the action of the sentence.
These sentences will follow a basic subject-
verb-object format.
Sentence examples
Simple syntax sentence:
• The boy jumped.
Compound syntax sentence:
• The boy jumped and the girl sang.
Complex syntax sentence:
• The boy jumped even though he was nervous.
Compound complex syntax sentence:
• Even though he was nervous, the boy jumped
and he landed across the stream.
Parallel structure in sentences
When constructing sentences, it is important to always
keep in mind that ideas should be parallel. In English,
parallel structure is most often an issue when creating
a series list. Therefore, we will look at the example of
appropriate parallel structure through lists.
Correct example:
• He like running, jumping, and hiking.
Incorrect example:
• I like to run, jumping, and hiking.
