Key Points

  • The preposition 'than' is used in expressions indicating one thing happening immediately after another.
  • When a sentence begins with negative adverbs like Hardly, scarcely, no sooner, etc inversion of the sentence takes place. In such a case helping verb should come before the main verb.
  • 'did' is always followed by the V1 form of the verb.

​The correct sentence is: No sooner did the phone ring, he was out of the home.
