當(dāng)主語(yǔ)在謂語(yǔ)前出現(xiàn)時(shí)叫順序（the natural order）。在某些情況下，我們可以把謂語(yǔ)成分放在主語(yǔ)前面，這種詞序叫做倒裝（the inverted order）。
倒裝分兩種：配合語(yǔ)法條例的倒裝，叫"grammatical inversion"；配合強(qiáng)調(diào)語(yǔ)勢(shì)的叫"emphatic inversion"。
語(yǔ)法上的倒裝句是強(qiáng)制性的，包括下列 7 種：
⒈疑問(wèn)句，如：
● Can you do it?
● How old are you?
● When did you know him?
● Why did you elect him as captain?
● Which of these apples do you prefer?
但疑問(wèn)代詞做主語(yǔ)時(shí)，不必倒置，如：
● Who is your English teacher?
● What happened last night?
⒉表示"愿望"的句子，如：
● May God bless you.
● Long live the king!
⒊"There"引導(dǎo)的句子，如：
● There are many cars on the road.
● There stand some big trees near the river.
● There is a security guard outside the bank.
⒋感嘆句，如：
● How beautiful the flower is!
● What a smart boy you are!
⒌有連接詞"so, neither, nor"的句子，如：
● Tom can ride a bicycle; so can I.
● She can't sing; neither can he.
● John has never been late; nor have I.
⒍省略連詞"if"的條件副詞分句，如：
● Were I you, I would not do such a thing.
● Should the machine break down again, send it back to us.
● Had you worked harder, you would have passed.
⒎"as, however"連接的讓步副詞分句，如：
● Small as the pen is, it is a powerful weapon.
● However busy you are, you should spend some time reading Zaobao weekly.
談過(guò)了語(yǔ)法上的倒裝句，現(xiàn)在談強(qiáng)調(diào)的倒裝句。例如：把表示否定的副詞或副詞短語(yǔ)提到句前；把副詞虛助詞提前：
● Never have I seen such a wicked man.
● On no account must this employee be removed.
● Not until he told me had I heard anything of it.
● No sooner had I left than the rain came.
● Up jumped the puppy.
● In came John.
● Down fell the rotten branches from the tree.
● Out came a woman and her maid.
