iljena syntax is based on clause-chaining. Each word is taken to specify the role played by one participant in the overall action described by the sentence. The language is strictly monotransitive - there is always one noun for each verb. The word order is used to express the flow of the action between the participants in the sentence, and to group related participants together.
