This book presents a comprehensive corpus-
based analysis of full-verb inversion in present-
day English. The author examines the distribu-
tion and pragmatic functions of full-verb inver-
sion in different fictional and non-fictional text
stylesas well as in the spoken language. Surpris-
ingly enough, inversion in oral communication
has not yet received the attention it deserves,
since most work on the topic has been restrict-
ed to the written language. It has often been
claimed that full-verb inversion occurs mainly
in written discourse, but these claims have not
yet been backed up by a detailed corpus-based
analysis. This book provides a more conclusive
picture of the distribution of full inversion in
speech and writing and analyses the distinct
pragmatic functions that the construction
serves in these two modes of communication. |
