Which sentence is in inverted order? A. I fingered the script nervously. B. At the back of the theater sat the director. C. I took a deep breath and began to read. D. Auditions for the play are in progress.
So,
"Inverted word order" means that the predicate (all of it) comes before the subject (all of it).
Option B is in inverted word order.
Natural word order:
The director sat at the back of the theater.
I believe the answer is b. a regular sentence would say "the director sat at the back of the theater" but, this sentence is kind of backwards/ inverted so that it's is switched around
