The 'Inte' Rule

Always check for 'inte' in a subordinate clause. If you see it, make sure it's before the verb.

The 'Så' Trick

If you struggle with inversion, you can sometimes add 'så' after a starting sub-clause to help your brain reset. 'Om det regnar, så stannar jag.' It's very common in speech!

The 'Nu' Test

If you're unsure about inversion, try starting your sentence with 'Nu'. If the verb doesn't come immediately after 'Nu', it's wrong!

The Finger Test

Cover the first word of a sentence. If it's not the subject, the very next word MUST be the verb. If not, your sentence is wrong!

A finite verb is the verb that is conjugated for tense (present or past). In 'Jag har inte ätit', 'har' is the finite verb.
In very formal or archaic Swedish, or in certain 'main-clause-like' sub-clauses in reported speech, it happens, but for B2, stick to the BIFF rule.
A finite verb is the verb that is conjugated for tense (present or past). In Jag har inte ätit, har is the finite verb, and ätit is the infinite form (supine).
No, only to 'sentence adverbials' (satsadverbial) like inte, kanske, alltid, ofta, ju, väl. It doesn't apply to place or manner adverbs like här or snabbt.
