【英語教室】24. 倒裝句
一般 翻譯英文直述句句型，為：主詞 + 動詞 翻譯社而本單位要講授的，是把動詞放在主詞前 翻譯直述句用法，有強調句首阿誰字的意思。
‧頻率副詞在句首的用法：so 翻譯公司 seldom, such, never, rarely, only 翻譯公司 little, hardly 等
本來句型：主詞 + 副詞 + 動詞 / 主詞+ Be 動詞 + 副詞
倒裝句型：副詞 + 助動詞 + 主詞 + 動詞 / 副詞 + Be 動詞 + 主詞
【注意】動詞為一般動詞時，要加助動詞！！
原句：He is seldom late to school.
倒裝：Seldom is he late to school.
原句：The situation was so strange that I could not turn on my computer.
倒裝：So strange was the situation that I could not turn on my computer.
原句：He has rarely worked late.
倒裝：Rarely has he worked late.
原句：He never gets up early. / He has never got up early.
倒裝：Never does he get up early. / Never has he got up early.
【留意】do/does/did 等呈現時，後面的動詞要用真相
原句：I can never jump that high.
倒裝：Never can I jump that high.
‧副詞片語在句首的用法：
直接把動詞與主詞對換，不需要額外加助動詞；但如需要加助動詞，規則對照頻率副詞的用法。但主詞若為代名詞時，因為太簡短，所以不必與動詞對換。
原句：A bear came out of the woods.
倒裝：Out of the woods came a bear.
原句：He came here.
倒裝：Here he came. （因主詞為代名詞，放句尾太簡短，是以沒必要對調）
原句：He cannot go anywhere.
倒裝：Nowhere can he go.
【註】不要問我為什麼原句是用 cannot+anywhere 翻譯句型，而倒裝用 Nowhere。這是語感問題，常聽常說英文便可大概抓出他們的利用習慣了。
‧Only 在句首 翻譯用法：
准確而言，Only 放句首時，應當是要用倒裝句的句型，但如今已有趨勢用直述句也能夠 翻譯社但若是是面對測驗，勸說列位還是用倒裝句的句型為妥 翻譯社
例句：Only can he complete the task.
新趨向，但測驗時不建議利用：Only he can complete the task.
‧so/neither/nor 等 在句尾 翻譯用法：
平常用逗號隔開兩句便可。但也有人用毗連詞 and 離隔兩句。
例一：I can walk fast and so can you.
例二：He gets up early, so does his brother.
例三：If he can finish the home work 翻譯公司 so can you.
例四：He never goes to school on time, neither does his sister.
例句："I cannot choose but adhere to the word of God 翻譯公司 which has possession of my conscience; nor can I possibly, nor will I even make any recantation 翻譯公司 since it is neither safe nor honest to act contrary to conscience! Here I stand; I cannot do otherwise, so help me God! Amen." — Martin Luther

小我覺得，倒裝句真的欠好用，連英語系人士都不見得每人都邑。之前留學時，就有一老美跟我爭辯一個倒裝句 翻譯句型，他固然不認為我是他非，後來用 Word 的文法查抄，才相信我的用法是對的。所以，除了要應付測驗 翻譯人，否則，這類句型，看得懂就行了，沒必要刻意認識或利用 翻譯社
