In Chleweyish:
  brando feino zabbe
  dog    man   bites
or
  feino brando zabbe
or even
  feino zabbe brando
  brando zabbe feino
  zabbe feino brando
  zabbe brando feino
do mean the same: either the man (men?) or the dog (dogs?) or both
bite or are bitten.  Well, it actually means that the dog bites the
man when you apply usual context logic, but if you want to be clear
you have to make some perisphrasis.
