The syntactic rules for nouns differ from language to language.

They are the result of recall and not of the composition of components by the application of syntactic rules.

The notion of a formal grammar may be closer to the intuitive concept of a "language," one described by syntactic rules.

Thus, Searle attacks the idea that thought can be equated with the following of a set of syntactic rules.

For Goodman, a symbol system is a formal language with a grammar consisting of syntactic rules and semantics rules.

Each test sentence used is therefore a valid member of the English language (although it may not necessarily conform to prescriptive syntactic rules).

Any symbol or word which does not violate the syntactic rules of the language can be used as a metasyntactic variable.

On one hand it is asserted that idiom variation needs to be explained with regard to general and autonomous syntactic rules.

Therefore, syntactic rules are those rules used in communication to describe how things are organized or ordered.

A regular expression is a way to describe sets of characters using syntactic rules.
