Обстоятельство

В разделе о сказуемом мы говорили о том, что наречия делятся на количественные и качественные, и обстоятельства, выраженные количественными наречиями, стоят непосредственно при сказуемом, так же как и отрицание. В самом деле, действие может иметь место (I speak English), может не иметь места (I don’t speak English), может иметь место лишь ограниченно, в определенной степени (ever, often, sometimes, only и т. д.), поэтому естественно, что все количественные наречия-обстоятельства стоят при глаголе-сказуемом.

Качественные наречия, служащие для выражения обстоятельства образа действия, характеризующие действие в целом и тем самым относящиеся как бы ко всей мысли, выраженной в предложении, стоят, как правило, в конце или – иногда – в начале предложения.

В английском предложении строго определено и место обстоятельства времени и обстоятельства места. Обстоятельство времени ставится в конец предложения, и ему предшествует обстоятельство места.

I’m leaving for London tomorrow.

Когда же движение (действие) уже начало описываться в предыдущем предложении, то в качестве указателя на последовательность действий обстоятельство времени может занимать первое место в предложении. Например:

Then…

At a quarter past six…

To же самое происходит с обстоятельством места, главным образом, при последовательном описании, но выдвижение его (особенно распространенного обстоятельства) на первое место в предложении часто влечет за собой инверсию.
