Mark 11 : 9

Greek uses an articular present participle (οἱ προάγοντες, 'those going before'); Vulgate renders with a relative clause (qui præibant); Syriac employs a demonstrative pronoun plus a relative phrase (ܘܗܢܘܢ ܕܩܕܡܘܗܝ, 'those who [were] before him'), a typical Syriac substantival construction — semantically equivalent but syntactically distinct.

Greek ἔκραζον is a single imperfect verb; the Syriac renders the durative aspect periphrastically with the participle ܩܥܝܢ plus the auxiliary ܗܘܘ ('were crying out'), the standard Syriac means of expressing past continuous action, whereas Latin clamabant uses a simple imperfect.

Greek substantivises with article plus present participle (ὁ ἐρχόμενος, 'the [One] coming'); Vulgate uses a relative clause with a finite verb (qui venit); Syriac employs the independent pronoun ܗܘ plus a relative finite verb (ܗܘ ܕܐܬܐ, 'he who comes') — equivalent reference, differing syntactic realisation.

Greek and Latin express the locative with a preposition plus noun (ἐν ὀνόματι / in nomine, two words); Syriac compresses this into a single inflected form ܒܫܡܗ ('in his name'), a prefixed preposition with pronominal suffix typical of Syriac morphology.
