== Introduction ==
 
In this lesson, we will explore the basic sentence structure in the South Azerbaijani language. Understanding the word order is essential for constructing meaningful sentences and conveying your thoughts accurately. South Azerbaijani follows a subject-object-verb (SOV) order, which means that the subject comes first, followed by the object, and finally the verb. This lesson will provide a comprehensive overview of this word order and its usage in various contexts. By the end of this lesson, you will have a solid foundation in constructing sentences with the correct subject-object-verb order.

South Azerbaijani is a Turkic language widely spoken in the South Caucasus region. As a complete beginner, it is important to understand the basic sentence structure of the language in order to start constructing basic phrases and sentences. In this lesson, we will explore the Subject-Object-Verb (SOV) word order in South Azerbaijani sentences.
== Overview of Subject-Object-Verb Order ==
 
The subject-object-verb (SOV) order is a fundamental aspect of South Azerbaijani grammar. Unlike English and many other languages that follow a subject-verb-object (SVO) order, South Azerbaijani places the subject before the object and the verb at the end. This word order is consistent across various sentence types, including declarative, interrogative, and imperative sentences.


== What is Subject-Object-Verb Word Order? ==
Let's take a look at a simple example to illustrate the subject-object-verb order:


Subject-Object-Verb (SOV) is a verbal sentence structure where the subject of a sentence comes first, then the object, and finally the verb. This word order is different from the default word order in English, which is Subject-Verb-Object (SVO). It is also different from other common Turkic languages such as Turkish and Uzbek, which follow the Subject-Verb-Object (SVO) order.
{| class="wikitable"
! South Azerbaijani !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
|-
| مینا || Mina || Mina
|}


In South Azerbaijani, the SOV order means that the subject is followed directly by the object, and then the verb is placed at the end of the sentence. Here's an example sentence to illustrate this:
In this example, "مینا" (Mina) is the subject, "مینا" (Mina) is the object, and there is no verb. This sentence translates to "Mina."


* South Azerbaijani: 𝐷𝑎𝑠 𝑤𝑒𝑟𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑟𝑖 𝑠𝑢 𝑔ə𝑙𝑝 𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑦𝑎𝑑𝑎𝑛.
== Subject in South Azerbaijani Sentences ==


* Pronunciation: Das verkəri su gəlp istiyadan.
The subject is the noun or pronoun that performs the action or is being described in a sentence. In South Azerbaijani, the subject always comes before the object and the verb. Let's explore some examples:


* English: The salesman wants to drink water.
=== Example 1 ===


Here, the sentence starts with the subject "the salesman" (𝐷𝑎𝑠 𝑤𝑒𝑟𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑟𝑖), followed by the object "water" (𝑠𝑢 𝑔ə𝑙𝑝), and then the verb "wants to drink" (𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑦𝑎𝑑𝑎𝑛) at the end.
{| class="wikitable"
! South Azerbaijani !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
|-
| آدام || Adam || Adam
|}


It is important to note that the verb itself may contain an object or a preposition. In these cases, the object or preposition may come before the verb, but the overall sentence structure still follows the SOV order.
In this sentence, "آدام" (Adam) is the subject, and there is no object or verb. It translates to "Adam."


== Examples of South Azerbaijani Sentences using SOV ==
=== Example 2 ===


Let's look at some more examples of South Azerbaijani sentences that follow the SOV word order.
{| class="wikitable"
! South Azerbaijani !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
|-
| مامان || Maman || Mother
|}
 
In this sentence, "مامان" (Maman) is the subject, and there is no object or verb. It translates to "Mother."
 
== Object in South Azerbaijani Sentences ==
 
The object in South Azerbaijani sentences receives the action or is being affected by it. Like the subject, the object also comes before the verb. Let's explore some examples:


=== Example 1 ===
=== Example 1 ===


* South Azerbaijani: 𝑀ə𝑛 𝑚𝑒𝑞𝑑 𝑦𝑖𝑛 𝑐𝑖𝑔ə𝑟 𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑦𝑖𝑎.
{| class="wikitable"
! South Azerbaijani !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
|-
| گل || Gol || Flower
|}
 
In this sentence, "گل" (Gol) is the object, and there is no subject or verb. It translates to "Flower."
 
=== Example 2 ===
 
{| class="wikitable"
! South Azerbaijani !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
|-
| آب || Ab || Water
|}
 
In this sentence, "آب" (Ab) is the object, and there is no subject or verb. It translates to "Water."


* Pronunciation: Men meqəd yin cıgır istiya.
== Verb in South Azerbaijani Sentences ==


* English: I want to buy a book.
The verb is the action or state of being in a sentence. In South Azerbaijani, the verb always comes at the end of the sentence. Let's explore some examples:
 
=== Example 1 ===
 
{| class="wikitable"
! South Azerbaijani !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
|-
| خورماخ || Xormax || Eat
|}


Here, the sentence starts with the subject "I" (𝑀ə𝑛), followed by the object "book" (yin 𝑐𝑖𝑔ə𝑟), and then the verb "want to buy" (𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑦𝑖𝑎) at the end.
In this sentence, "خورماخ" (Xormax) is the verb, and there is no subject or object. It translates to "Eat."


=== Example 2 ===
=== Example 2 ===


* South Azerbaijani: 𝑃ə𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑖 𝑣ə 𝑏𝑒𝑛𝑧𝑖𝑛𝑏 𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑦𝑎𝑑𝑎.
{| class="wikitable"
! South Azerbaijani !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
|-
| خواب || Xab || Sleep
|}
 
In this sentence, "خواب" (Xab) is the verb, and there is no subject or object. It translates to "Sleep."


* Pronunciation: Pəteri və benzin istiyada.
== Cultural Insights ==


* English: Peter needs gasoline.
The subject-object-verb order is not unique to South Azerbaijani. Many other Turkic languages, such as Turkish and Uzbek, also follow this word order. This similarity can be attributed to the historical and cultural connections between the Turkic-speaking regions.


Here, the sentence starts with the subject "Peter" (𝑃ə𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑖), followed by the object "gasoline" (və benzin), and then the verb "needs" (𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑦𝑎𝑑𝑎) at the end.
In South Azerbaijani culture, storytelling holds great importance. Traditional folk tales and legends are often shared orally, and the subject-object-verb order is commonly used in these narratives. Understanding this word order is crucial for comprehending and appreciating the rich storytelling traditions of South Azerbaijani culture.


=== Example 3 ===
== Practice Exercises ==


* South Azerbaijani: 𝐿ü𝑡𝑓𝑖 𝑏𝑖𝑟 𝑠𝑢 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑞𝑢𝑟 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑎 𝑏𝑎𝑔𝑙𝑖𝑡 𝑦𝑒𝑦𝑖𝑙𝑖𝑟.
Now, let's practice constructing sentences with the subject-object-verb order. Translate the following sentences from English to South Azerbaijani, keeping the word order in mind. Solutions will be provided after each exercise for self-assessment.


* Pronunciation: Lutfi bir su sinequur baba balit yeilir.
=== Exercise 1 ===


* English: Lutfi saw a red apple in the father's bag.
Translate the following sentence to South Azerbaijani: "The cat caught the mouse."


Here, the sentence starts with the subject "Lutfi" (𝐿ü𝑡𝑓𝑖), followed by the object "apple" (bir su 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑞𝑢𝑟 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑎), and then the verb "saw" (𝑏𝑎𝑔𝑙𝑖𝑡) at the end.
Solution:
