- Main article: Iðâɣ
This page gives an extensive description of Iðâɣ syntactical features.
Main clause and word order
Iðâɣ is an almost strictly SVO (Subject-Verb-Object) language.
îrə lîp soβe the man sees the dog
Despite the limited case system, the word order is essentially fixed because of the lacking distinction between the subject and the direct object.
The other elements in the sentence are usually placed in the order “time-cause-manner-place”, although they are basically freer than the main elements, as they are conveyed by the case system or by the prepositions. The indirect object tends to be placed after the direct object of the sentence.
