There be类似句这么说有必要吗

问题描述

There an accident happened of a very extraordinary kind.

There有和没有好像一样，有什么区别吗？为什么不倒装呢？谢谢老师的回答。

老师答疑

蒋老师：

句中的介词短语of a very extraordinary kind 是修饰名词accident 的。原句相当于：

There an accident happened of a very extraordinary kind.

=There happened an accident of a very extraordinary kind.

=There happened a very extraordinary kind of accident.

（那儿）发生了一起非常奇怪的事故。

There happened…是there be 的变体。
