Example of Hyperbole: I have a million things to do today. Our topic this week is all about the "Normal and Inverted Word Order". Normal Word Order is the sentence that is normal or natural order where the verb follows the subject, While Inverted Word Order is the sentence where the main verb, a helping verb, or a prepositional phrase comes before the subject. We had our exercises like determining if it is Normal or Inverted word order, choosing the correct letter, and some arranging sentences. We have our trivia like "What is the body temperature in celsius?", What is the PH scale number considered neutral?", and "What is New Normal?". We are also given a task to do write our blogs.
