A simple English statement normally follows a fixed order: the subject comes first, then the verb. Some verbs also have an object, and the object comes after the verb. Place usually comes before time at the end.
In a neutral statement the subject comes before the verb. Many verbs need an object, and the object comes after the verb.
In the present simple or past simple, a question or a negative with an ordinary lexical verb like enjoy or read needs the helper verb do, does or did; the lexical verb keeps its place after the subject: Does Anna like her new job? Anna does not like her new job. The verb be works differently: it makes questions and negatives without do (Is Anna happy? Anna is not happy); see Question forms: yes/no and wh- questions for the question and negative forms of be.
When you add a phrase that says how, where or when, it usually goes after the object, not between the verb and the object.
At the end of a sentence, put the place first and the time after it. A time phrase can also start the sentence.
A short adverb like always, never or usually goes before the main verb, and after be. See Frequency adverbs: always, usually, often, never.
✗I like very much this song.
✓I like this song very much.
In this sentence very much goes at the end, after the object this song, not between like and its object.
✗She watches every evening television.
✓She watches television every evening.
Here the object television comes straight after watches, and the time phrase every evening goes at the end, not between the verb and its object.
✗They their grandma visit at the weekend.
✓They visit their grandma at the weekend.
In this statement the verb visit comes straight after the subject they, and the object their grandma comes after the verb; the verb cannot move to the end of this clause.
✗Reads your brother comics?
✓Does your brother read comics?
A question with an ordinary lexical verb like read needs does before the subject here; the lexical verb cannot move in front of the subject in this question.
