將謂語的全部或部分放於主語之前，這種語序叫倒裝句語序。
將謂語的全部放於主語之前的倒裝句語序叫完全倒裝。
(一).完全倒裝一般具備以下條件：
1.謂語動詞是一般不帶情態動詞、助動詞且限於一般現在時或一般過去時。
動詞多為不及物動詞。
2.句子主語通常只能是名詞。當主語是人稱代詞時，主語和謂語的語序不變。
Here comesthe bus.(公共汽車來了)不說成：Here is comingthe bus.
Here I am. (我在這兒。) 不說成: Here am I.
Here he comes. (他來了。) 不說成：Here comes he.
(二).完全倒裝的情況：
1.地點副詞或時間副詞位於句首時
地點副詞here,there,in ,out,away,off,down,over,up等和時間副詞now和then
位於句首時，且謂語動詞是be, come,go等表示移動或狀態的動詞，句子要用
完全倒裝。

Away wentthe girl.女孩離開了。
There goesthe last train.最後一班火車開走了。

there是引導詞，本身沒有實際意義，其主語是be動詞後面的名詞。

there be 句型也被稱為「存在」句型，表示「有」的意思。
可變化為類似的there live/stand/lie/appear/seem等句型。
