German sentence structure is basically equal to English S-P-O:
Subject (Subjekt) - Predicate (Prädikat) - Object[s] (Objekt[e]).

Example:

E: I am a furry.
G: Ich bin ein Furry.

Simple so far, but the German language has a distinctly higher variability about how to add additional information, like time, place or modal structures into a sentence.

In English you put the information about time and place at the begining or end of a sentence while you can put them inbetween the three basic sentence parts in German.

Example:

E: At 10 o'clock we meet Peter at the lake.
G: Um 10 Uhr treffen wir Peter am See.
G: Wir treffen Peter um 10 Uhr am See.
G: Peter treffen wir um 10 Uhr am See.

---

All sentences mean the same, but the word order is changed to put certain things into the focus of the sentance. In the first example the focus is on the time, in the second on the speaker himself and in the last example sentence the focus is on the person they're going to meet.
I don't want to go into the depths of that topic yet.

Depending on the type of sentence the sentence structure varies.

Statement / w-Question sentence: S-P-O
Example:

E: [color=]He[/color] [color=]is[/color] nice.
G: [color=]Er[/color] [color=]ist[/color] nett.

E: Who is nice?
G: Wer ist nett?

Demand / decisive question sentence: P-S-O

E: Give me that!
G: Gib mir das! (Here is much to explain, but another time xD )

E: Do you come tomorrow?
G: Kommst du morgen?

Subordinate clause: (S)-O-P

E: He says, that he comes with her.
G: Er sagt, dass er mit ihr kommt.
