Etymology: From New Latin syntacticus, from Ancient Greek συντακτικός (suntaktikós).
- Of, related to or connected with syntax.
“The sentence “I saw he” contains a syntactic mistake.”
“the rules specifying how agglutinative morphemes are combined with each other are more syntactic than morphological by their nature and thus are closer to rules specifying how word-forms are combined with each other.”
- Containing morphemes that are combined in the same order as they would be if they were separate words e.g. greenfinch
