N.B!
1. Pay attention to the position of the subject in the inverted sentences:
Should he call, tell him I’m out. (Type I)
Were I you, I wouldn’t trust her. (Type II)
Had he been told, He would have understood. (Type III: had + subject + Participle II)
2. Pay attention to the position of ‘ not’:
Were it not for your help ….
Should he not answer ….
Had he not been told,…..
3. We can’t use contracted forms with the inversion:
Were it not for your help …. (not ‘weren’t’)
Should he not answer …. (not ‘shouldn’t)
Had he not been told,….. (not ‘hadn’t’)
4. We use only ‘ were’ not ‘was’ in inverted sentences:
Were it notfor your help …. (not ‘was’)
