In Japanese, the usual way to build a sentence is by following the Subject-Object-Verb (SOV) order.

This means that in a sentence, you have three main parts:

1. Subject (S): This is who is doing the action.
2. Object (O): This is who or what is receiving the action.
3. Verb (V): This is the action itself.

Here’s a simple example:

• In English, we say: "I (S) eat (V) sushi (O)."
• In Japanese, it becomes: "私は寿司を食べます (Watashi wa sushi o tabemasu)."

Studies show that about 95% of basic Japanese sentences follow this SOV structure.

Also, in Japanese, the verb always comes at the end of the sentence. This helps to highlight the action and adds a unique flow to the language.

Understanding this structure is really important. It helps you make clear and correct sentences in Japanese.
