You learned that there are many different programming languages, just like there are many different spoken languages throughout the world. And programming languages have certain syntax, or rules, they have to follow in order for the computer to understand the commands. Give one example of syntax for one of the programming languages listed in the unit. Then give two examples of syntax from a language you know. Describe what will happen if you do not follow these rules in your language.

One example of syntax in Python is the use of indentation to indicate the beginning and end of blocks of code. For example, in a loop or a function, the lines of code inside that block must be indented to show that they are part of the same block.

In English, one example of syntax is subject-verb-object order in a sentence, like "I eat apples." Another example is using punctuation like periods and commas to separate clauses and phrases.

If you do not follow the syntax rules in Python, your code will not run properly and you will likely receive error messages indicating where the syntax error occurred. In English, if you do not follow the syntax rules, the sentence may be difficult to understand or could even be completely nonsensical.
