1. Objective

By the end, you will recognise and use “Word order” correctly in simple examples.

2. Discover

Place “Sot unë punoj në shtëpi.” next to “Unë punoj në shtëpi sot.”. What stays the same and what changes?

3. Understand

To understand “Word order”, start from the examples rather than an abstract definition. Notice how the groups connect. Meaning comes from their relationship, not only from isolated words.

Sot unë punoj në shtëpi.Unë punoj në shtëpi sot.Në shtëpi punoj më qetë.Këtë libër e lexova dje.Arta, ajo vjen nesër.Vetëm sot mund të vij.Shembull shtesë: Fëmijët pyet pas pune.

Watch out

Choose the connector from the meaning, not from an isolated translation. Languages do not always divide logical relations in the same way.
