(Adverbs with “*” are used as conjunctions when placed at the beginning of sentences – các trạng từ có dấu “*” ở trên sẽ được dung như liên từ khi được đặt ở đầu câu).
eg: He went to the church immediately. Khác với Immediately, he went to the church.

Nhưng Never will she eat this kind of food
Inversion cases: các trường hợp đảo ngữ
Trong một số trường hợp các trạng từ có nghĩa hạn chế (phủ định) không đứng ở các vị trí bình thường mà được đảo lên đầu câu với dụng ý nhấn mạnh đến hành động của chủ thể (chủ ngữ). khi đó ta thực hiện hình thức đảo ngữ (đảo động từ trợ lên trước chủ ngữ – như câu nghi vấn) và gọi là câu đảo ngữ. cụ thể như trình bày dưới đây:
