Syntax refers to basically how words are
arranged in a sentence and how a writer has
created a patterns with words.
If you mess with syntax, you can change the
 meaning:



The young man carries the lady

The lady carries the young man
Regular syntax : basic pattern of a S + V+ O.

  The girl held a puppy.
    S + V + O
Irregular syntax: Writers place words in
 varying order to create emphasis or to
 explore further meaning in their words.



Syntax from the Thomas Harly poem:
“The man he killed”: “ Yes: quaint and curious
war is!”
