Basic word order

Zasada

Once a sentence carries more than a subject, a verb and an object, English has a settled order for the extra parts.

Zapamiętaj

  • Adverbs of frequency go before the main verb and after be.
  • Adjectives go before the noun, in a set order when there are several.
  • Place comes before time: she works in Ankara on Mondays.
