===Syntax=== Oneida either is verb-initial or has no dominant form.<ref name="WALS">See [http://wals.info/languoid/lect/wals_code_ond WALS Online].</ref> Interpretation of Elm's portion of the text of the Creation Story itself reveals a clear verb-initial word order,<ref>{{harvp|Elm|Antone|2000|pp=35β61}}</ref> but Antone's portion<ref>{{harvp|Elm|Antone|2000|pp=30β35}}</ref> does not, suggesting that word order is variable by speaker and that flexible usage is grammatically acceptable. Oneida constructs sentences in the [[active voice]] only.<ref name="WALS" />
