There is a word order to Japanese that is, to oversimplify a bit, verb-at-end. It's considered a SOV (subject-object-verb) language, IIRC this early in the morning.
What is your native language? We might be able to draw some parallels since you apparently know English as well as something else (I can tell English is not your first language).
