Abstract
The article discusses word order in German and Slovenian contrastively, focusing on the rules of fixed word order and the possibility of free word order in sentences. In German, verb forms create the sentence frame, which is the basic building template, and simultaneously give rise to the typical characteristic of German sentences. Such frames are atypical in Slovenian. Selected sentences in both languages were analysed on the basis of the contrastive model developed by A. Wöllstein. The article presents the differences and similarities of word order in simple sentences in both languages, while also providing suggestions on how to adjust the model to the Slovenian language.
