Maybe it's just me but this question doesn't make much sense...

Syntax is the format in which code is written (i.e. PHP always starts with <?php and ends with ?>, $ implies a variable name, you end lines with ;, etc)

Contructs are creating objects / calling language functions (echo, print, isset, etc)

I am asking this because I read a book about PHP and it said, there are two things to learn about PHP beforehand. Syntax and Constructs..

I am pretty sure this is what the book is talking about.(Basic constructs). Not the same constructor, I thought it would be..

It should be called control structures..
