Take this sentence: "I want soup tonight." Now it's not just the words here that convey the meaning. It's also the way in which these words are arranged, the way these words are modified and arranged.
Neem de zin: 'Ik wil vanavond soep.' Niet alleen de woorden brengen de betekenis over, maar ook de samenstelling van de woorden, dus de wijziging en rangschikking.
