Simple word order
La regla
English fixes meaning by position. Subject, then verb, then object, and moving a word changes who did what.
Recuerda
- Subject before verb, object straight after: the dog chased the cat.
- Nothing separates the verb from its object.
- Manner, place and time come after, and usually in that order.
Error común que evitar
Word order is not a stylistic choice here. Reversing subject and object produces a perfectly grammatical sentence with the opposite meaning.
