Speaking for Japanese, there is certainly an "order" for words, but that order is based on the readings of words, which may be difficult to ascertain from just the string.

Eg. Words starting with 一人 can be read as both いちにん (ichinin as in 一人前 - food for one person) or ひとり (hitori - 一人暮らし - living alone)
