Waiting

Posted by Mishaikh on October 24, 2015

Never had I waited for her for such a long time before.  Rarely had she given me such a tough time.  Hardly had I reached the rendezvous, when I received a call from her that she would not be able to come till the end of the day, and at the same time I was asked not to leave the place.  Never have I been treated so indifferently and ignored when I needed her company so badly.  No sooner had the day ended than I received another call from her informing me that she would not be able to come.   I at last,  managed scarecely to come out of the shock and left the place to drive back to home dejectedly.

    tnx Mr mishaikh ,i feel and touch this situation .waiting is really hard for me and i think for all.specially such a situation that there is nothing at the end .waiting for someone who doesnt know how u feel when u r waiting for her or him .it is not easy waiting for nothing but we have to try to understand him or her maybe she or he had a problem .of course i couldnt do that myself ,hhhhhhhh ppl think im patient but im not.and i cant understand any one in the situation like that u wrote.

    Oh is this inversion the same we use in conditional sentence like " had I waited for you, you would have come?

    Inversion, good grammatical examples.

    Thanks for sharing.

    @ Expector:

    I have tried to fix as you advised.  Please check.

    I was waiting someone to catch the theme of grammer in this blog, and you were in my mind Expector.

    Thanks a lot.

    Sounds like a love story!

    Great. You've used inversion in your blog. Yes, you need to use inversion with the negative expressions such as hardly, never, no sooner, scarcely.

    The last sentence "Scarcely had I..." needs fixing, though.  Hope you get it.

    Yes yes Onee you are correct,he has to be patient.
