وقد يتقدم الخبر على المبتدأ، نحو: «في الدار زيد».
Translation: Sometimes the predicate precedes the mubtadaʾ, as in “In the house is Zayd.”
In فِي الدَّارِ زَيْدٌ, «فِي الدَّارِ» functions as a fronted predicate, and «زَيْدٌ» is the delayed mubtadaʾ. First position does not automatically mean mubtadaʾ.
