刘老师,请问这句话是不是需要部分倒装?

A few paces off in the darkness there was a shadowy figure squatting against the wall.

加粗部分前置是不是需要倒装?期待你的解说!


A few paces off in the darkness there was a shadowy figure squatting against the wall.

“倒装句”是什么原因和首要条件,是以否定意义的副词开始的句子。

a few 是一个“限定词”(形容词),后面跟名词,不是副词,也没否定意义。两个条件都不拥有。

这里,a few 等于 some,several 之意。

所以,它开头的句子不倒装。

A few paces off in the darkness,是个地址状语,“在黑暗中几步远的地方”。
