About This Resource
This C1 resource focuses on inversion triggered by fronted negative and strongly limiting expressions. It develops control of scope, auxiliary placement, and emphasis in declarative clauses whose word order resembles a question but serves a different grammatical and rhetorical function.
What You’ll Learn
• Recognize negative and limiting expressions that can trigger inversion.
• Place the auxiliary, modal, or form of be correctly before the subject.
• Control the scope of the fronted expression over the clause.
• Distinguish negative inversion from ordinary question formation.
