倒裝句可分為全部倒裝和部分倒裝兩種：

　　一、全部倒裝

　　謂語動詞提前至主語之前為全部倒裝，如：Out came his guest.

　　On the hill stood a little cottage that contained heaps of hay.

　　There lived an elderly lady whose husband died long ago.

　　二、部分倒裝

　　助動詞或情態動詞提至主語之前，謂語動詞位置不變，即為部分倒裝，如：

　　Neither could he see through your plan.

　　So little did I know about him that I was easily taken in by his words.

　　Doesn't her invitation appeal to you?

　　否定詞用于句首時，句子應進行部分倒裝

　　否定詞常用的有：

　　Not only…(but also)，Not until(直到………才)，No sooner…(than)(一………就)

　　Never/ Rarely/Seldom Hardly/Scarcely…(when)

　　Few/LittleNeither/Nor (也不)，At no time，Under no circumstances(決不)，On no account(決不)，In no way

　　其中not only，no sooner，hardly，scarcely 分別和but (also)，than，when搭配使用，需注意：后一組詞之后的部分不進行倒裝，只有否定詞之后的部分倒裝。

　　如：Hardly had I arrived home when it began to rain.

　　Not only was he able to enter the final round of the contest，but hecame out first as well.

　　No sooner had I got any chance to speak than the clerk slammed the door in my face.

　　Seldom does he travel about.

　　Under no circumstances should you betray your own country.

　　此類倒裝句一般出現在填空題中，需填入的是倒裝部分，只要在句首見到上述的詞，就應條件反射的想到用倒裝句。

　　當句子沒有賓語，且主語偏長時，往往將句中作狀語的介詞短語或作表語的形容詞短語或作表語的分詞短語提至句首，引起主謂的全部倒裝。

　　如：In the middle of the river floated the cluster of plants that shehad cast.

　　Characteristic of an anarchist was her strong opposition to the government，which she had blamed for all the social injustices.

　　Lying on the grassland is a pretty girl in her early twenties.
