Syntax of Linxia dialect

General declarative sentences have the characteristics of sov word order. The so-called sov refers to the sentence structure of "subject-object-predicate center", which is widely used in all language families in the world, and ancient Chinese also has this feature. Therefore, it is debatable to simply attribute sov word order sentences to prepositional objects.

Verb object

Don't worry. (Subject-object-modifier-verb)

Don't worry about it anymore. (Subject-Modifier-Verb-Object)

Disposable type

The structural word [xa] (ha) is used to modify the object, indicating the relationship between disposal and disposal.

You occupy a table. Ha, move over.

Bei - sentence

The Bei sentences in Linxia dialect are mostly unmarked passive sentences, or they are replaced by "jiao" and "gei".

Double-object sentence

The structure is: subject-indirect object-verb-direct object

You and I will pay ten dollars. (Mandarin is: You give me ten yuan. )
