Default Re: concession and inversion

Hi,
Inversion is an unusual, reversed word order, when, for instance the subject of the sentence goes after the predicate:
Usual: The sun (the subject) rises (predicate) in the east.
Reversed: Here comes (predicate) the sun (subject).

It's a vast topic, but I am short of time now, sorry.
Regards.
