Verb Subject Object
From Freepedia
Verb Subject Object—commonly used in its abbreviated form VSO—is a term in linguistic typology. It represents one type of languages when classifying languages according to the sequence of these constitutents in neutral expressions: Ate Sam oranges. The word order roughly corresponds to the order of symbols in (non-reverse) Polish notation or the S-expressions of the Lisp programming language.
Examples of languages with VSO word order include the Celtic languages (such as Welsh, Irish, and Scottish Gaelic), Arabic, Ancient Egyptian, Tagalog and Tongan. Non-VSO languages that use VSO word order in questions include many Germanic languages and French.
