but you probably mean "Ich streichle den blauen Hund" ("I pat the blue dog")
as apposed to
"I pat then bluen dog"
(the latter seems incorrect in both English and German) ?
could you give another example maybe? I think you're on to something but petting the cat or dog seems to have an identical sentence structure in English and German. Only difference being sex. That's true in Italian, German, French, Spanish, and gets even worse with Slavic languages (or some non European languages).
