syntactically and semantically

Hi there teachers, 

- They differ (from each other) syntactically
- They differ (from each other) semantically

Could you please tell me what the words 'syntactically' and 'semantically' mean in the examples above? 

Thank you.

Hi. 1 - I am a christian. 2 - I am christian.

  • Hi.
  • 1 - I am a christian.
  • 2 - I am christian.
  • Above sentences are syntactically different but semantically, they are same .
  • In the first sentence, " christian" is a noun, but in the second sentence, it's an adjective .
