- Object/Verb + Subject
Häufige Fehler
While inversion is flexible, the verb usually stays connected to the object if the subject is moved to the end.
Don't just tag words at the end; ensure they fit the rhythmic flow of the sentence.
Standard order is fine, but for emphasis, placing the time adverbial after the subject-verb core is better.
