Why is syntax important in a piece of writing?
Mamont248 [21]
Syntax are important in a piece of writing because it is essential for written communication. 
Without syntax, the sentences are harder to understand. 

Example:   Incorrect: While watching a movie, people who text on their phone are very annoying
                  Correct: People who text on their phone while watching a movie are very annoying. 

It just makes the sentence easier to understand. 

Hope that helps!
