Discussion
Choose the correct word order and mark your answer in the response sheet.
park/the/to/went/children/the/yesterday.
Answer: A
The correct order is The children went to the park yesterday.
An English statement normally follows subject, verb, then the other parts: the children (subject), went (verb), to the park (place), yesterday (time). When place and time both follow the verb, place usually comes before time.
The children went Yesterday to the park puts time before place and wrongly capitalises yesterday. The two options beginning To the park invert the normal order for emphasis, which is possible in poetry or narrative but is not the ordinary word order the question asks for.
