Oof, okay, this autocorrect thing - I suppose I'll have to stop auto-correcting it myself () to avoid repeating the same conversation.

Well, actually, word order is deadly simple: the verb is always in the second place, everything else is pretty much free game. You'll see the subject, objects, adverbs... adjectives, I suppose, in the first place, shifting the rest of the sentence forward.

Code:
Heute   ist     es         warm.
adverb verb subject

Braun         ist    der Bär.
adjective    verb    subject

 Den Hund         hat     meine Freundin.
direct object    verb       subject
Of course, then you come to nuances, as to which part of the verb you take, when it's a complex verb structure, like the past perfect. And it works differently for questions and for subordinate and other clauses. But don't worry about that for now. It's just to prevent you from getting more confused later by all these new rules suddenly appearing.
