Basic Word Order (SVO)

English sentences follow Subject + Verb + Object.

Examples

Key rules

• Statements follow Subject + Verb + Object: She eats apples
• Adverbs of place and time usually go at the end: I study at home every day
• An adjective goes before its noun
• Do not drop the subject or change the order in statements

Common mistakes

• Eats she apples → She eats apples
• I like very much tea → I like tea very much
