However, moving a word or phrase forward of the main verb in Ancient Greek
does not normally alter the syntax of the clause. This kind of movement has
been discussed extensively in recent decades. It isn't typically treated as
a syntax issue.
Scanning the archives, I can see that Iver and others have already discussed
this at length so there isn't much point in repeating it now.
