Well... It's more about what you're used to. From Wikipedia:

Quote:
Verb Subject Object (VSO) is a term in linguistic typology. It
represents one type of languages when classifying languages according
to the sequence of these constitutents in neutral expressions: Ate Sam
oranges. The word order roughly corresponds to the order of symbols in
(non-reverse) Polish notation or the S-expressions of the Lisp
programming language.

Examples of languages with VSO word order include the Gaelic branch of
the Celtic language family (namely Irish, Scottish Gaelic and Manx),
related Brythonic languages; Welsh, Cornish and Breton, Ancient
Egyptian, Aramaic, Biblical Hebrew, Pangasinan, Phoenician, Canaanite,
Ge'ez, Classic Maya, Tagalog, Hawaiian, Māori, and Tongan.
Unquote.

Thanks by additional information and your useful corrections.

Now a few questions. How many of those are modern languages? Ancient
Egyptian, Aramaic, Biblical Hebrew, and Classic Maya do not appear to
be modern. I think that Breton, Hawaiian, and Māori may be in some
local use but I am not sure.
My native Tagalog language (and possibly the related Visayan
languages, I think, which are derived from either Malay or Indonesian)
has a VSO form. For instance, I can say "Nag-aral ako ng Lisp", where
"nag-aral" is the past tense of "aral" or study/learn, "ako" is the
singular self pronoun like "I", and "ng" is an overloaded connector,
used to specify either that the nonpersonal noun after it is the
target (which may be either the subject or object, based on position
in sentence), or that it is the owner of the previous noun. However,
the language does have an SVO form that feels (to me, and native
speakers I think) hacked into the language, "Ako ay nagaral ng Lisp",
where "ay" signifies that form and separates the subject from the
verb. I have this vague feeling the SVO form was hacked into the
language by the Spaniards who did much of the teaching (!!) of the
language in the 16th-19th century.
