I don't understand inverted order sentences clearly. "Try as she does,she will never pass it" In my opinion,it's an inverted order sentence. But can you give me more examples like this ?
Thank you !

Writing with style and grace is as much a matter of experience and taste as hard rules and examples.

The more English sentences you read, the more you'll come to understand what works and what doesn't.

Inverted word order is often used with "poetic" intent. Usually these sentences clunk rather than sing.
