Is the Word Order in German an Important Grammar Topic?
The German word order is a foundational grammar concept that every learner must master. Start by learning the basics:
- Main clauses: These are simple sentences with a straightforward word order.
- Subordinate clauses: These depend on a main clause and often introduce word order variations.
- Question sentences: These follow specific patterns based on the type of question.
Once you’ve mastered these, you can move on to more advanced structures like the passive voice, modal verbs, imperative, and final clauses. For more detailed information about the sentence structure, check out our comprehensive guide here.
What is a Main Clause?
A main clause is a simple, complete sentence that can stand alone.
Example:
- Ich gehe ins Kino. (I’m going to the cinema.)
The word order is typically subject + verb + object, and it’s straightforward for beginners.
What is a Subordinate Clause?
A subordinate clause depends on a main clause and provides additional information. It often starts with a subordinating conjunction (e.g., weil = because, dass = that).
Example:
- Ich gehe ins Kino, weil ich einen Film sehen möchte.
(I’m going to the cinema because I want to watch a movie.)
In subordinate clauses, the conjugated verb is placed at the end of the clause.
