66. Inversion of subject and verb
• Incorrect: Never I have seen such a sight.
• Correct: Never have I seen such a sight.
• Incorrect: Hardly I have had any rest for a week.
• Correct: Hardly have I had any rest for a week.
When the first word of the sentence is a negative, the main verb comes before the subject, as in a direct question.
