Inversion即喺倒裝句,睇落好似好難學,但其實記熟一定嘅句構,就好快上手!倒裝句多數用嚟強調句子嘅意思,學咗佢,寫英文果陣時唔會走雞喇!

 

首先要學倒裝句嘅基本構成︰

 

倒裝句式=問題句式

 

倒裝句式=問題句式(auxiliary + subject + main verb)

 

倒裝句式(Seldom do I eat meat我很少吃肉)= 問題句式(auxiliary助動詞 + subject主語 + main verb主要動詞)

 

倒裝句會用否定做開頭,有時會用時間詞,目的喺強調一個事件嘅uniqueness(獨特性)。

 

  • Never, rarely, seldom 從不,很少,很少

 

原句︰I have never been so in love.

倒裝句︰Never have I been so in love.

我不曾這麼地熱戀過。

 

原句︰I rarely talk to my parents.

倒裝句︰Rarely do I talk to my parents.

我很少跟父母說話。

 

原句︰The boss has seldom been that angry.

倒裝句︰Seldom has the boss been that angry.

老闆很少這麼生氣。

 

  • Hardly, barely 幾乎不,幾乎沒有

 

原句︰I can hardly hear you.

倒裝句︰Hardly can I hear you.

我幾乎聽不到你的聲音。

 

原句︰She had barely notice his change in attitude.

倒裝句︰Barely had she notice his change in attitude.

她幾乎沒有發現他態度的轉變。

 

  • Little

 

用嚟強調某啲事情冇被完全明瞭。

 

原句︰He understands little about this situation.

倒裝句︰Little does he understand about this situation.

他不太明白這個情況。

 

原句︰I was not aware that she had been sick.

倒裝句︰Little was I aware that she had been sick.

我不知道她生病了。
