All three languages have a subject–verb–object basic word order, but Swedish sides with English in keeping this order also in Dependent clauses (where German puts the verb last). Like German, Swedish utilizes verb-second word order in main clauses, for instance after adverbs, adverbial phrases, and dependent clauses. Adjectives generally ...
The Swedish alphabet is a Latin-script alphabet with 29 letters, including the modern 26-letter basic Latin alphabet, plus three extra letters: Å, Ä, and Ö. The letters Q, W, and Z are rarely used outside of loanwords and proper names.
In linguistic typology, subject–verb–object (SVO) is a sentence structure where the subject comes first, the verb second, and the object third. Languages may be classified according to the dominant sequence of these elements in unmarked sentences (i.e., sentences in which an unusual word order is not used for emphasis).
Swedish uses the same rule as English: a comma is not required before or after a non-parenthetic clause. Example where the dependent clause is parenthetic – Norwegian: John, som hadde sett mannen, visste hvordan han så ut (English: John, who had seen the man, knew what he looked like). Example sentence with nonparenthetic clause:
The basic principle in Japanese word order is that modifiers come before what they modify. For example, in the sentence "こんな夢を見た。" (Konna yume o mita), [7] the direct object "こんな 夢" (this sort of dream) modifies the verb "見た" (saw, or in this case had). Beyond this, the order of the elements in a sentence is ...
In an active voice sentence like Sam ate the apples, the grammatical subject, Sam, is the agent and is acting on the patient, the apples, which are the object of the verb, ate. In the passive voice, The apples were eaten by Sam, the order is reversed and so that patient is followed by the verb and then the agent.
In linguistic typology, the object–subject–verb (OSV) or object–agent–verb (OAV) word order is a structure where the object of a sentence precedes both the subject and the verb. Although this word order is rarely found as the default in most languages, it does occur as the unmarked or neutral order in a few Amazonian languages ...
As I recall, some sentences can consist only of Clause A or only Clause B, and some combine them in that order. Corrections welcome. --Steve Rapaport 13:10, 9 October 2005 (UTC) Well, I recall having seen these sentence structure schemes for Swedish and German, but unfortunately I don't have one available for reference now.
