English sentence: The dog (subject) ran (verb) in the house (object).
Filipino translation: Tumakbo ang aso sa bahay.
Literal translation: Ran the dog in house.
Based on the translations, what sentence structure do Filipino languages use?
Subject-verb-object (SVO); the same as Enlgish.
Verb-subject-object (VSO); the same as Tongan.
Subject-verb-object (SVO); the same as Spanish.
Answer explanation
The Filipino lanugaes use a verb-subject-object structure. In the literal translation, we can see the the verb (ran) is written first, then the subject (dog), then the object (house). This is because the Filipino language is derived from the Tongan.
