Meaning
Word order refers to the sequence in which words are arranged in a sentence. In English, the basic word order for simple sentences is Subject + Verb + Object.
Example
For example: "She (Subject) loves (Verb) reading (Object) books." Changing the word order can alter the meaning or make the sentence incorrect.
Precedence
However, word order rules can get more complex in different sentence structures. For instance, in questions, the verb often comes before the subject.
