It is necessary to distinguish the following parts of speech: principal and secondary parts and independent elements. The subject and the predicate belong to the principal parts. The secondary parts include the attribute, the object, the adverbial modifier. It is typical to distinguish the following independent elements: the interjection, the direct address, the parenthesis.
The subject acts as the «doer’ or agent of an action. Usually they are noun phrases. There direct and indirect objects. A direct object is meant to be a thing or a person affected by the action of the verb. An indirect object is normally a person who receives a direct object. The predicate tells us what the subject does. The attribute is a word ascribing a quality. The adverbial modifier is a word or a phrase which usually modifies a verb or an adjective.
The independent elements stand as the words and word groups which do not depend on any part of the sentence from the grammatical point of view.

Word order in English is of great importance. English words have hardly any inflexions and their relations to each other are shown by their place in the sentence and not by their form.
The word order in English is fixed and it is called the direct word order if it is the following:
SUBJECT – PREDICATE – OBJECT – ADVERBIAL MODIFIER.
# She loves her father greatly.
The indirect word order is:
PREDICATE – SUBJECT —OBJECT – ADVERBIAL MODIFIER.
# Have you nuts at home?
!Passive Voice. It is used to emphasize the verb and the object of a sentence rather than subject:
Active voice: He wrote this letter in 2012.
Passive voice: This letter was written in 2012.
1. State the type of word order in the following sentences:
1. I like ice-cream.
2. Does he often come here?
