 SYNTACTIC DEVIATION
 It means by rearranging just one word
in the sentence, a varied syntax is
formed.
 The arrangement of words that make a
sentence.
SYNTACTIC DEVIATION
Each is grammatically correct and
acceptable English language form.
The boy jumped happily.
The boy happily jumped.
Happily, the boy jumped.
SYNTACTIC DEVIATION
We typically notice syntax more when
writers do not follow the typical word
order. Poetry often varies in syntax
because poets play with word order to
achieve the rhythm and rhyme that they
want.
 SYNTACTIC DEVIATION
But, soft! What light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon.
Who is already sick and pale with grief,
That thou her maid art far more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious.
Her vestal livery is but sick and green
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.
X I like to run, jumping and hiking.
/ I like running, jumping and hiking.
