Syntax

WARNING
this might get complicated...


Welcome to the basic aspects of syntax.  It may look complicated but I assure you that you will see this very simple.  In order to understand the basics of grammar you must understand the following words.  Create a Post under the title Syntax, where you give a definition (don't forget to quote, from where you got the information) of the following terms:

Syntax, Grammar, Parse Tree, Noun Phrase, Verb Phrase, Sentence, Determiner, Adjective, Adverb, Noun, Pronoun, Prepositional Phrase, Auxiliary Verb, Verb.

After doing your definitions, watch the following video:



Try to make a parse tree for the following sentence:

The student killed Mr. Zea.

Publish your possible Parse tree in the Blog.
