EXPLANATION The term inversion refers to an irregular verb placement form and it covers two different grammatical operations: 1. Using a question form of the main verb “ Not only did he get late to work, but also came completely unprepared for the meeting”. 2. Changing the normal positions of verb and subject, mainly for emphasis. “ Along came Polly ”. “ Up in the air went the ballon”.
INVERSION AFTER NEGATIVE ADVERBIALS When the adverbial occurs at the beginning of a clause (formal language). “ Never have I been more insulted!” After time expressions such as never, rarely, seldom, hardly, barely, scarcely, no sooner. “ Seldom have I felt so alone” “ Scarcely had I got out of bed when the doorbell rang” After only (only after, only then, only when…) “ Only after understanding the situation does the teacher make a comment” After phrases containing no/not (under no circumstances, no account, at no time, in no way, on no condition, not until, not only…(but also)) “ Under no circumstances can you leave this house!” “ Not only will she have to study hard, but she will also have to concentrate to do well on the exams” After little. “ Little have I read concerning nanotechnology”
INVERSION AFTER SO/SUCH WITH THAT This occurs with so and adjectives when the main verb is be. It is used for emphasis and is more common than the example with such. It only happens if so/such is the first word in the clause. So + adjective ... that' combines with the verb 'to be'. “ So difficult is the test that students need three months to prepare”. Such + to be + noun ... (that)‘. “ Such was the force of the storm that trees were uprooted”.
INVERTED CONDITIONAL SENTENCES WITHOUT IF Sometimes conditional forms are inverted as a means of sounding more formal. In this case, the conditional 'if' is dropped and the inverted forms takes the place of the 'if clause'. This makes the event less likely. “ Had he understood the problem, he wouldn't have committed those mistakes” (If he had understood the problem,…) “ Should he decide to come, please telephone”. (If he decides to come, …) “ Had I known you were coming, I would have cooked something special” (If I had known you were coming, …)
INVERSION AFTER AS This is more common in formal or written language. “ We were really tired, as were most people who came to the trip” INVERSION AFTER SO, NEITHER AND NOR “ A: I don´t like onions; B: Neither do I”.
PRACTICE Turn the following into inverted sentences 1. We had no sooner left the house that it exploded. No sooner had we left the house that it exploded. 2. Half a dozen apples fell down. Down fell half a dozen apples. 3. If Mr Chan had been kinder to his employees, his business would not have collapsed. Had Mr Chan been kinder to his employees, his business would not have collapsed. 4. There are no circumstances where audience members may consume alcohol. (Under no circumstances) Under no circumstances may audience members consume alcohol. 5.I did not say I would accept late homework. (at no time) At no time did I say I would accept late homework.
