1. 1句法的、語法結構的

    'Syntactic' means 'to do with syntax' — that is, with how words are arranged into phrases and sentences, and what counts as a correctly built sentence in a language. A syntactic error is a fault in the arrangement, not in the meaning of the words: 'She the book read' has good words in a bad order. Linguists use it constantly — syntactic structure, syntactic rules, a syntactic analysis. Computing borrowed it whole: when a program refuses to run and says 'syntax error', it means the code breaks the language's arrangement rules, and programmers speak of syntactic correctness. There is a useful pair to learn with it: syntactic is about form, semantic is about meaning. Chomsky's famous sentence 'Colourless green ideas sleep furiously' is fine and nonsense — that contrast is the clearest way to hold the two apart. The adverb is '', and 'syntactical' means the same thing but is heard less often.

組成From New Latin syntacticus, from Greek suntaktikos, from suntassein 'to arrange together': sun- 'together' + tassein 'to arrange, put in order'.
