Sentence Structure

Nepali Language Structure Nepali is a language that follows a subject-object-verb (SOV) sentence structure. This means that the subject of the sentence usually comes first, followed by the object and then the verb. For example, let's take the English sentence "I am eating an apple". In Nepali, this would be "म स्याउ खाँदै छु। Speak "Ma syau khadai chu" (literally: "I apple eating am"). Here's another example: English: The cat is sleeping on the mat. In Nepali, this would be बिरालो चटाई मा सुतिरहेकोछ । Speak "Biraalo chataima sutirahekocha". (literally: "Cat mat-on sleeping is"). Notice how in both examples, the subject comes first, followed by the object and then the verb. This is the typical sentence structure in Nepali.
