2) STRUCTURE
The subject and auxiliary verb following the adverbial phrase are inverted. If there is no auxiliary verb, we use do, does or did. • Only / seldom / not until • At no time / in no way + Auxiliary verb + subject + main verb • On no account / under no circumstances Ex: At no time did Mr. Smith realize that he was being cheated. Ex: On no account had he foreseen that the criminals were his own friends.
• No sooner + Auxiliary verb + subject + main verb + than (COMPARATIVE) Ex: No sooner had he left home than he decided to phone his friend. • Scarcely / hardly / little + Auxiliary verb + subject + main verb Ex: Scarcely did he know that his team had lost when he started to cry. Ex: Little does she remember about what happened last night.
