Like every language Urdu has its own syntax. Once you have learned the basic structure of Urdu sentence it will be easy for you to understand hundreds of simple sentences used in daily conversation.
For better understanding we first look at English and Arabic structure.
Basic Structure of English Sentence:
Subject + Object + Verb
( I + eat + apple)
Basic Structure of Arabic Sentence:
Verb + Subject + Object
( eat + I + apple)
Now we move to Urdu structure with examples.

Subject + Object + Verb
( I + apple + eat ) - Present Indefinet Tense
(Main + sayb+ khata hn)

How about future tense?
imran, that was very helpfull, but may be changing that
Subject + Object + Verb
( I + eat + apple)
it is subject + Verb + object, for english part.
it will be more helpfull if you write the meaning of the words you use, so we enrich our vocabulary.
and for arabic post for Rafin, the right form is
Akal + tu + tufah
eat + i + apple
No, Its not correct. No need to specify ana because the form of verb itself identifies the subject.
Akila ana apple
verb+subject + object
Akala tufah
For more details please ask in Arabic forum.
