                                     Word order

 

Most English sentences (clauses) conform to the SVO word order. This means that the Subject comes before the Verb, which comes before the Object. Examples:

 

I (S) bought (V) a new computer (O).

 

She (S) doesn t like (V) dogs (O).

 

Why did you (S) do (V) that (O)?

 

It is more complicated when an indirect object (I) is added to the sentence. In this case the word order depends a.) on whether the direct and indirect objects are nouns or pronouns, and b.) on whether the indirect object is preceded by the word to. Here are the basic rules:

 

Indirect object with to:
· Two nouns
· Two pronouns
· Pronoun object/noun indirect object

 

SVOI

 

I showed the computer to my friends.
I showed it to them.
I showed it to my friends.
She gave the present to her mother.
She gave it to her.
She gave it to her mother.

 

 

Indirect object without to:
· Two nouns
· Two pronouns
· Noun object/pronoun indirect object

 

SVI0

 

I showed my friends the computer.
I showed them it.
I showed them the computer
She gave her mother the present.
She gave her it.
She gave her the present.

 

Many English sentences also contain adverbials. The problem for the English learner is that some adverbials can be located in different places within the sentence, while other adverbials must appear in one place only. For example, it is correct to say both: I very quickly did my homework .. and I did my homework very quickly .., but only I did my homework in a hurry .. is possible. I in a hurry did my homework .. is wrong.
