It's kind of like the "core language definition" of things such as:
if (...)
while (...)
<?php and ?>
and so on
In PHP, a handful of common things that many beginners *THINK* are
functions are acutally Language Constructs:
require
include
echo
isset
I belive most of them are documented as such in the manual now.
Language Construct roughly corresponds to the "grammar" of the
language, if you will.
