Samantha U. Stephenson, cyberbullying is the act of a small-minded person. It's easy to belittle someone while hiding behind an avatar.

structure of a programming language is also called syntax.

Russian is a quirky language that has no set word order. I lived in Russia and the Ukraine and at times I would scramble up my words to try and set them off and each time I was understood perfectly. The reason why is a strict usage of conjugation for verbs and the declension of nouns with any modifying adjectives using a case system.

I used to love parsing a sentence when I was in primary school, it taught us how each word in the sentence interacted with the others and what order they should be in. That was almost 50 years ago, and isn't done now which I think is one of the reasons language is changing and generally not for the better.

More people need to study syntax, particularly journalists who are notorious for poor grammar.

Lisik, Spanish is an example of one of the latter three orders!
I find that quite often the verb follows the subject and object, but also the verb can appear at the beginning of a sentence, depending on what exactly is being said!
It sometimes gets confusing for me as I am currently trying to learn the Spanish language!
Italian is also similar to Spanish, (I am also trying to learn italian), so I'm feeling a little daunted!

Freddie B, I got it wrong because I rushed to the answer of music, as musical syntax, before i had completely read the list!

I'm interested in syntax it wasn't taught in my schooling. I'm gonna learn what I can now though.

SOOTI, I think the lack of good grammar is due to bad influence of music/entertainment industry. The less vocabulary, the more "cool" it is.

Tahoeboy1970, right you are, the Russian language is very undisciplined which makes it difficult to learn. But it's extremely rich and versatile and expressive.
