<p>This book examines the frequencies of the six possible basic word (or constituent) orders (SOV SVO VSO VOS OSV OVS) provides a typologically grounded explanation for those frequencies in terms of three independent functional principles of linguistic organization. From a database of nearly 1000 languages and their basic constituent orders a sample of 400 languages was produced that is statistically representative of both the genetic and areal distributions of the world's languages.</p>
