Odia grammar has four main moods: indicative, imperative, subjunctive, and interrogative The copula does not surface if the sentence is in the present tense Odia is a subject–object–verb (SOV) language, with the finite verb in a sentence agrees with its subject in person and number and also marks the honorific form
