Dear, Microsoft Corporation

The question I am asking is pertaining towards the common language runtime
(CLR), and the common type system (CTS). First, Why does the common type
system (CTS) define only semantics and not both syntax and semantics? is
this due to the CTS not being definitive in defining a syntax?

What sense does the CTS defining a syntax make? The syntax to use a type is
related to the language you use, whereas the CTS is designed to give
multiple languages a uniform typing system.
