Unit 3, Lesson 14: Inverted and Interrupted Order Page 147

Inverted Order Sentences that begin with all or part of the predicate rather than the subject are in inverted order. Subject-verb agreement can be tricky. First, identify the subject. Then, make the verb agree with the subject.

Types of inverted order Sentences beginning with here or there: Here is the science museum. There are so many exhibits! Other declarative sentences In this room is a space capsule. Upstairs are cars of the future! Interrogative sentences Where is the fossil exhibit? Are the dinosaurs shown here?

Interrupted Order The noun closest to the verb is not always the subject of a sentence. A sentence is in interrupted order when other words come between the subject and the verb. Often exhibits on only one subject fill an entire museum. A guide to museum exhibits is in the library.
