It should work, because VSO is common (at least from my observations) in Spanish, so it shouldnt be a stretch to have the verb first. Although, i'm pretty sure (and yeah, i should know this) that other verb forms would need to be used to express certain things......but i dont know what exactly :). Could anyone give me a hint here? (preferably someone who knows Spanish better than I, because Montreiano is closely related to it).
