Lesson about word order

word order

Word order: The arrangement of words in a phrase, clause or sentence. 

In English the order is pretty much set, this set order rarely ever changes. Which is why we are going to practice the most conventional way of this order.

Can you put these parts in the right order?

object, time, subject, verb, place

Can you give the Dutch translation of these parts?
Subject, verb, object, place, time

Is this the correct order?

Subject, object, verb, place, time

1. No, time should come before place
2. Yes
3. No, Object should come before subject
4. No, verb should come before object

Is this sentence written in the right word order?
I watched a film yesterday at home.

1. No, place comes before time
2. No, yesterday at home should come before the rest.
3. Yes the sentence is correct

Is this the correct word order?

This book I will give her next lesson.

1. Yes
2. No, I will give her should come before this book
3. No , Next lesson should be at the front of this sentence
4. No, it should be Give her this book I will next lesson
