  1. Inversion: advanced patternsNegative and restrictive adverbials, only-phrases, conditionals without if, and so/such fronting that put the auxiliary before the subject in formal English.
  2. Cleft sentencesIt-clefts, what-clefts and their relatives split one statement into two parts so that the important piece carries the emphasis.
  3. Ellipsis and substitutionLeaving words out after an auxiliary or to, and replacing clauses and nouns with so, not, one, do and neither, so that English sounds natural, not translated.
  4. Hedging and registerHow to soften a claim with modals, seem, tend and perhaps, and how to choose formal, neutral or informal wording to fit the reader.
