Kettunen & Helmke 2011 Grammar III GRAMMAR 13. WORD ORDER The word order in the Maya hieroglyphic texts, and in the modern Maya languages alike, usually follows the verb-object-subject (VOS) pattern (unlike English which usually employs SVO-constructions). However, very often in the hieroglyphic texts the object is missing or omitted, and clauses usually begin with a date, giving us a typical formula of Maya texts: date-verb-subject. Dates can often take up the major part of the texts, verbs only one or two glyph blocks in each sentence, and personal names with titles can be as lengthy as the titles of European monarchs. calendar (temporal adverbial phrase) DNIG DN ADI/PDI tzolk’in ‘day’ haab ‘month’ day, month tun ‘year’ k’atun 20 ‘years’ --- 24/154
