"Sometimes she is here."

Translation: Noen ganger er hun her.

[Abdullahalhoothy]

why is (Noen ganger er hun her) considered best translation instead of (Noen ganger hun er her)

[griffindd]

because when an adverb is at the start of a sentence the verb has to be second. They call it the "V-2" rule here. https://www.duolingo.com/skill/nb/Adverbs

Would, "Hun er noen ganger her," work as well? If so, is there a difference in the emphasis?

[badjuju77]

I think it would be similar to the english translation.
"Sometimes she is HERE." "She is SOMETIMES here."
The first emphasizes that she is here sometimes, other times elsewhere. The second emphasizes that she is only here occasionally.

"sometimes is she here" doesnt seen right

[NikhilSingh687]

Is this similar to the German v2?

[DerAndereLerner]
