The document discusses two types of inversion structures in English: no sooner inversion and not until inversion.
No sooner inversion uses the structure "No sooner...than..." to invert the order of two clauses, placing the time clause before the result clause. Not until inversion uses the structure "It was not until...that..." and can be inverted to "Not until...did..." placing the condition clause before the time or result clause.
Examples are provided to illustrate how to identify and invert the clauses in each structure. Soon/immediately/at once must be removed when inverting a sentence using no sooner inversion. The verbs remain unchanged for not until inversion.
