Default word order in Dyrel is SOV, but word order is relatively free because of the extensive case marking. Modifiers precede the element that they modify, except genitives, which follow their construct state referents. Elements in the construct state do not take case marking regardless of case; i.e. ''on veí'' "my house" regardless of whether it is the subject or an object. | |||
