Sentence Structure
The standard sentence structure is SOV, as:
subject + direct object/indirect object + direct object/indirect object + verb
An alternative, less common structure is OSV.
The direct and indirect objects are normally interchangeable, with the greater emphasis placed on the first. Time and space elements can be placed anywhere, but usually occur at the beginning or end of the sentence.
