'So in comes this guy.' and 'So in He comes.'

Dear teachers,


I understood that "So in comes this guy." is an inversion of "So this guy comes in."

I read a text book that I cannot reverse the position of 'subject' and 'verb' if the subject is pronoun.

Thus, my understanding is as follows:

  • So in He comes.

Is this correct and natural to the eye of the native speakers?


Thanks and best regards,


David Kim
