倒裝句 is called inverted order.
when the verb or part of the verb comes before the subject, the
sentence is in inverted order. Most questions are ing inverted order. sentences that begin with here is, here are, there is, or there are,
are all in inverted order. writers sometimes use inverted order
to create an effect or to change the emphasis in a sentence.
For example,
Over the hill ran the soldier.
Does Rosa love pizza?
Here are the keys.









The opposit of inverted oreder is natural order.
when the subject of a sentence comes befo the verb,
the sentence is in natural order.
for example,
The soldier ran over the hill.
Rosa does love pizza.
The keys are here.
