こんにちは! I'm new to this site and Japanese language. I haven't learnt the entire Hiragana alphabet yet and don't know any Katakana. I'm trying my best to stay away from Romaji, so please be aware that I am working at a very basic level!

I want to be able to understand the structure of sentences, first and foremost.
I have been told that Japanese sentences are structured using SOV.

**Is this sentence correct?** If so, could it be improved? If not, where did I go wrong?

> 
> わたし は にほんご へた
> 
> 
> 

As far as I know, it translates to 
'[Subject] - I am / [Object] - Japanese / [Verb] - bad at'

Thanks!
