Talk:Verb Object Subject

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

These languages aren't VOS in any strict sense of the word. In fact, the whole concept of "subject" may be misleading: there's a lot of debate with many AN languages about whether they even have subjects. Anyway, not a clear case. kwami 23:52, 2005 May 4 (UTC)

I'm fairly sure that Malagasy is consistently specifier-final and head-initial, so is probably underlyingly VOS.BovineBeast 18:21, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Where does Yoda say "Go to Dagobah, you must?" Yes, he does have a distinguished manner of speech, but he never actually says those exact words. Since he's not seen in Episodes V and VI except already on Dagobah, it's hard to attribute such a directive to him. Blue william 02:07, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Isnt Classical Arabic VOS, when using a personal pronoun suffix? e.g. أريده الناس ʔuri:duhu n-na:su "the people wanted it"?
