    E.g ( contoh ) :

      Under the tree stand two students.        ( Di bawah pohon berdiri dua murid. )

                               V                  S

3. Conditional sentence tanpa If / Unless.

       If I were your aunt, I would tell the truth  =>  Were  I  your aunt, I would tell the truth.

                                                                                  V       S

4. Jika ada kata bermakna negatif mengawali kalimat.

    (never, hardly, seldom, not only, at no time, etc.)

    E.g ( contoh ) :

       Never did the boy call his parents.

                  V           S

5. Jika ada kata only + a time expression mengawali kalimat.

    E.g ( contoh ) :

        Only once was  Jack angry with me.

                            V       S

6. Jika ada kata so, such, little diawal kalimat.
