Oiticica Inversion
Use this skill when reviewing or rewriting English prose where inversion is the controlling issue.
Source concept: Inversion alters logical word order to give relief, rhythm, or emphasis.
Rules
- Use inversion only when it improves emphasis, rhythm, or image placement.
- Keep modern English syntax intelligible.
- Reject violent or archaic inversion that calls attention to itself.
- Compare the inverted order with the direct order before recommending it.
Review Shape
Use the source-model shape for strong models:
Principle:
<oiticica-inversion: one sentence naming the concept>
Preserve:
<supplied example text>
Why:
<why the model satisfies the concept>
Rubric:
<at least two objective checks, each marked Pass or Fail>
Use the repair shape for weak passages:
Principle:
<oiticica-inversion: one sentence naming the concept>
Weak:
<small passage or paraphrase>
Fault:
<name the exact broken relation>
Better:
<corrected version>
Why:
<explain how the revision restores the relation>
Rubric:
<at least two objective checks, each marked Pass or Fail>
Start Principle with the exact skill name oiticica-inversion.
If the prompt says source-model or source-model paraphrase, copy the supplied example in Preserve and do not use repair headings.
Objective Rubric
- The word moved gains useful emphasis.
- The sentence remains idiomatic English.
- The inversion does not obscure subject and verb.
- The direct order is worse for a named reason.
Pass only when every applicable check passes. If correctness fails, fix or name that failure before judging style.
English Rule
Apply modern English grammar, punctuation, morphology, idiom, and prosody. Do not transfer Portuguese orthography or grammar into English.
Source Boundary
Source notes live in references/notes.md.
Do not invent source quotations. If an example is labeled as a paraphrase or invented passage, preserve that boundary in the review.
When a task asks for a Preserve section, copy the supplied example text exactly; do not replace it with imagined source prose.
