Answer:

Scarcely did I

Step-by-step explanation:

Scarcely did I come to school late when I was a student.

Inverted Sentence is a type of sentence in which the verb/predicate is used before the subject. This is done to put more emphasis on the verb in the sentence.

The words 'never', 'seldom', and 'scarcely' are used in inverted sentences to show how unique the situation is and they are mostly used in a perfect form and include comparative terms.

Other examples include:

  • Never have I been more humiliated!
  • Seldom has she seen anything brighter.
  • Scarcely did I get so bad at something.
