C2 Mastery word order
กฎ
At C2 word order stops being a rule to obey and becomes a tool: what goes first, what goes last and what is left out all carry meaning of their own.
จำไว้
- Fronted negatives and restrictives force inversion: not until the audit did anyone notice.
- Clefts, absolutes and reduced relatives repackage the same content around a different focus.
- End-weight puts the heaviest element last so the sentence stays readable.
กับดักที่พบบ่อยและควรเลี่ยง
Inversion after a fronted negative is obligatory, not stylistic. Never before anyone had seen it is wrong however natural the uninverted order feels.
ทดสอบตัวเอง
Rewrite one paragraph three ways, moving the focus each time, then practise the topic.
