Can I change the order of the words of a sentence in english?
like changing this: "My story began with those lines"
to this: "With those lines my story began"
or: "with those lines began my story"
like if you were talking in spanish

Question

Answer

So when speaking English you can do this. You are just switching the main clause: the fact that “the story began” with a description of how. The last two are a little more formal, though, and normal speakers wouldn’t really say that in conversation. If you want to, though, you can. Becuase everybody speaks slightly differently and it still makes sense
