the basic form of tense in spanish si: subject (the dog) verb (are eating) and complement (garbage), you can write in another way too BUT the correct form is this one. In spanish this sentence means "el perro está comiendo basura"... this one you can write in anoteher way like that: está comiendo basura el perro, first the verb and complement and the end the subject... another way is: el perro basura está comiendo, first the subject and complement, the last the verb... and too, basura está comiendo el perro or basura el perro está comiendo... jajaja there are many forms that you can say or write this... bur the correct way is the first.. but don´t care what form you use, the peolple are gonna understand you! kisses! bye
