There is no rule for word order in the Internacia Lingvo. There are rules for marking the object. Word order is none of it. Die Katze frisst die Maus. Wen frisst die Katze? Die Maus frisst die Katze. Meaning through word order doesn't work in German, doesn't work in any none-SVO-language and it doesn't work in Esperanto. | |
