Show transcript
Inverted sentence structures add variety to your writing.
Inverted sentence structures also draw attention to moments or ideas.
Chiasmus is an X-shaped sentence structure.
Chiasmus takes the clause from the first half of a sentence and repeats and reverses it in the second one.
Chiasmus creates a sense of completion and is often euphonious.
