Had 1sееп the саг appгoachiпg, 1would have warned hег.

Shou/d ту fгiend са//, kiпdly te/1 hiт to wait fогте.

Wеге she hеге, she would help us.

5)after so, пеithегjпог, aswhen expressing agreement:

"/ hate hоггог filтs." "So do /." (So is used to agree with an affirmative statement.)

"Jапе hasп't гeturned оигcal/s. ""NeitheгjNoгhas hегhusbaпd. "(Neitheг1

Nогare used to agree with а negative statement.)

His colleagues гespected hiт as did his boss.

6)after adverbs of place: hеге, theгe, поw, theп, but only if the subject is а noun:

Негеаге а few episodes which il/ustгate the couгage of оиг soldieгs.

7)after certain expressions wheп they are at the beginning of а sentence: haгdly

... wheп, little, neveг, пeitheг, пог, поsоопег ... thaп, оп/у, поtоп/у, sсагсе/у

... when, seldoт, гаге/уеtс.:

Raгely do we see hiт these days.

Hardly had 1reached the statioп wheп the tгаiп staгted. Оп/у then did he understaпd it.

8) after so, such, to such а degree when they are at the beginning of а sentence:
