table, but inserting a row into the table.
+if it is only for making it more clear, there should be an INSERTINTO statement instead. Separated words should each one add a new meaning or condition to the statement.
-I think the real reason you need the word "into" is because the designers of the language decided so.
+Me too. And just now I asked "Why they did so?"
I assume SQL was designed to read like plain English statements, maybe that's why keywords are split into individual words instead of joined. You also have "delete from", "order by", etc. I think it was meant for ease of reading and writing.
