 Subject Verb Object - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In this, Sam is the subject, ate is the verb, the oranges is the object.
In linguistic typology, subject-verb-object (SVO) is a sentence structure where the subject comes first, the verb second, and the object third.
However, any other constituent may come before the verb instead of the subject which then must follow immediately after the verb.

 Subject Object Verb - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In linguistic typology, Subject Object Verb (SOV) is the type of languages in which the subject, object, and verb of a sentence appear (usually) in that order.
An example would be: "servus puellam amat", meaning "The slave loves the girl." In this sentence, "servus" is the subject, "puellam" is the object and "amat" is the verb.
French, Portuguese and Spanish are SVO, but use SOV when a pronoun is used as the (direct or indirect) object: e.g., "Sam a mangé des oranges", "Sam comeu laranjas" or "Sam comió naranjas" (Sam ate oranges) would become "Sam les a mangées", "Sam as comeu" or "Sam las comió" (Sam them ate).

Here Bill is the subject but boy is not the object of the verb, instead it is a complement of the subject noun, which is Bill.
That last part was a bit complicated, but it's just a very grammatical way of saying subject-verb-object.
"Bill gave a present to Mary" has Bill as the subject, gave as the verb, and a present is the object.

Sometimes the sentence will have only a subject and verb but no object, in which case we're talking about the relationship between subject and verb.

 Linguistics Principles: Language Parts (Syntax)
There are six types of language syntax: subject-verb-object, subject-object-verb, object-subject-verb, object-verb-subject, verb-subject-object, and verb-object-subject (abbreviated SVO, SOV, OSV, OVS, VSO, and VOS), with the most frequent being SVO, VSO, and SOV.
If an object is not present, by our innate knowledge of the language we know that the object of the sentence is the same as the subject of the sentence.
In VO languages (SVO, VSO, or VOS), auxiliary verbs ("to be," etc.) tend to precede the verb, adverbs tend to follow the verb, and prepositions tend to precede the noun.

 Word order - Psychology Central
For example, English is SVO (subject-verb-object), as in I don't know this but OSV is also possible: This I don't know.
It is not understood why word orders with the subject before the object are much more common than word orders with the object before the subject.
It must be noted that in most languages there is the tendency to identify the subject with the topic (who or what is being talked about) and to place the topic at the beginning of the sentence so as to establish the context quickly.

 Esperanto: A Language for the Global Village by Sylvan Zaft: Chapter 16
In English, we use word order to tell who did the chasing (the subject of the sentence) and who or what was chased (the direct object of the sentence.) We give the subject, the one doing the chasing, first; the verb, second; and the object, the one that was chased, third.
Here the direct object ending –n is one of the means available to solve a problem for the speaker of Esperanto, the problem of whether or not she can use a particular preposition with a verb.
Then there is an entirely different kind of language which does not use word order to indicate the subject and the object.

In English, the sentence Naomi uses a computer has the order subject (Naomi), verb (uses), and object (a computer).
In the corresponding Japanese sentence, the subject comes first, just as in English, but then the object appears, followed finally by the verb: Naomi-ga (Naomi) konpyuuta-o (computer) tukau (use).
In Japanese, despite the lack of number and gender inflection on the verb, it is possible not only to leave the subject out, but any other element in the sentence except the verb, so long as it is understood in the sentence.
