因字數有限，已將此簡化
若有疑問，歡迎發問！

希望幫到你！

其實倒裝句既意思就係利用發問方式去寫一句非發問句子
example中既
has ... been .....
就係特色所在
錯誤句會係 not only there has never been a pervious.......

如果想自創倒裝句, 只需將句子變為發問形式, 由not only 帶頭

e.g. Not only did I want to teach you how to use inversion, but I also am willing to be your personal tutor and let you enjoy more about the beauty of english.

我不只希望教你運用倒裝法, 還希望成為你既私人補習導師, 讓你學會更多英文既漂亮運用之法。

e.g. Not only am I an english tutor, but I am a mathematics tutor as well.

我不只是一位英文補習老師, 還是一位數學老師。
