Which rule do you have to keep in mind if you want to form a sentence in German?

*The answer is Time Manner Place (TMP). Of course, there are exceptions to this rule, but ideally this is the foundation of basic word order. It relates to adverbs linked to the different aspects TMP. Generally, the subject of the sentence (such as "I" or "James" or "my tortoise" starts it all off, them we launch into applying TMP. For example, a time phrase could be "yesterday", "this afternoon", "at 2 am". Time phrases more commonly start sentences off however. *The verb is always second! Don't forget! *A manner phrase describes the things involved in the action (well, the verb that is within the sentence) such as potentially watching a football game or having dinner with family. *And the place aspect is quite literal-where the action is occurring. Referring to our last few examples, "at Stamford bridge" or "in a restaurant".*So with all of that, can you tell me which parts of the sentence "Ich nehme morgen meinem Kaninchen zum Tierarzt" ( "I am taking my rabbit to the vet tomorrow")?
