Debuggers are software programs that are used to check other programs.

One of their functions is to do a syntax check. For example, if a higher level language uses an "if else" statement and the programmer writes it as "if esle", which is a common error, the debugger would recognize the spelling error and "flag" (mark) the statement as being in error. That is a very simple error, however, there can be very complex errors that a human may not be able to discern.
