Questions & Answers about Wij keren uit, voor zover de dekking voldoende is.
Why does the verb is go at the very end of the sentence?
Because voor zover (as far as / to the extent that) is a subordinating conjunction. Like other subordinating conjunctions you have learned (such as omdat or dat), it pushes the verbs in its clause to the end.
Does voor zover refer to physical distance here?
No, voor zover is used figuratively to mean 'to the extent that' or 'provided that'. If you wanted to talk about physical distance, like 'as far as the next town', you would use zo ver als.
I know the verb for paying out is uitkeren. Why is it split into keren uit?
Uitkeren is a separable verb. In a standard main clause, the conjugated part (keren) takes the second position, while the prefix (uit) gets kicked to the end of that clause. The comma marks the end of the main clause, so uit stops right there.
