In Spanish, the typical sentence structure follows a Subject-Verb-Object (SVO) order, similar to English. The subject (who is doing the action) usually comes first, followed by the verb (the action), and then the object (who or what is receiving the action).
For example:
- Yo como manzanas. (I eat apples.)
Spanish is also flexible with word order, so you might see the verb come before the subject in questions or for emphasis:
- ¿Comes tú manzanas? (Do you eat apples?)
Understanding this basic structure will help you build and comprehend Spanish sentences more effectively.
