It's the right word in the context I used it.

"API" refers to the whole thing. API does not refer specifically to how statements are written or how accessible or readable its custom patterns and expression are to read and write.

I like the jQuery syntax. This means I like how the expressions tie together in the way they do, using the custom syntax it employs for representing objects, methods etc. I'd give example of some expressions I like the syntax of, but it sounds like you're not interested.

Maybe you're offended because I highlighted your less than helpful advice to "try new stuff", which was a response to someone expressing their like of Jquery. They weren't looking for advice, or revealing a problem. You turned their like of Jquery into a problem, and now you're turning my use of a word into another problem.
