Hi !

Normally, the English sentence is S-V-O-Place-Time, right?

So, why is the following then correct even though "place" is in the middle of the sentence?

Example:

I go to the swimming pool with my best friend.

According to the rule, it would have to be "I go with my best friend"... wouldn't it?

Thank you SO MUCH for your help !

The word "go" is (always) intransitive and therefore does take a (direct) object.
