推 KittyStan:Only you can come in 這裡的only就是在限定煮詞 08/12 23:03

→ dunchee:"usually"這個字不像他舉的only/rarely那樣子放在前頭的話 08/13 00:19
→ dunchee:後頭的句子就要倒裝 08/13 00:19

That's right: only when the "limiting" word, phrase, or clause comes
at the beginning do we invert.
Only now, though, does it occur to me that "usually" isn't
restrictive enough to cause inversion; but rarely would I put that at
the beginning anyhow. In real life, of course, I'd rarely put
"rarely" at the beginning.
他的整篇回覆是這樣
那他後面不就應該是寫In real life, of course, I'd rarely put
"usually" at the beginning.才和前後文嗎
^^^^^^^
還有上面都沒有人問到usually阿
MIKE MORGAN的第二個問題不是問說
That's what I thought, however some time ago I came across a sentence with a
non-inverted (can I say so?) order and reached for a book on English grammar
to check it. There I saw:
"Notice that inversion CAN occur after a clause beginning with only
after/if/when..."
So CAN does not mean MUST, does it? Anyway, if you and some others are
surefire about it, I will stick to it for good. Thanks and regards.
他不是在問倒裝是MUST還是CAN嗎
回答不就牛頭不對馬嘴
謝謝K大跟D大
