Subject-operator inversion in sentences with fronted only

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This paper reports results of a corpus-based analysis of subject-operator inversion in sentences with fronted only in British English as represented by the British National Corpus. Sentences with sentence-initial only were examined and the presence or absence of inversion was pondered with respect to the function of only in these sentences. Special attention was paid to the word order after only focusing a fronted adverbial element, where the usage is split between inverting and not inverting. It turnsout that the most reliable criterion is the form of the adverbial: subject-operator inversion always occurs if the adverbial is expressed by an adverb phrase, prepositional phrase or a clause, and it does not occur if the adverbial is expressed by a nounphrase.
