nGRAMMAR: Word order
Scarcely usually comes before a main verb:
She scarcely said a word.
Scarcely comes after the first auxiliary verb:
I can scarcely believe he said that.
Don’t say: I scarcely can believe he said that.
Scarcely usually comes after the verb ‘be’ when it is used in simple tenses such as ‘is’ or ‘was’:
I was scarcely aware of the noise.
You can use scarcely at the beginning of a sentence before an auxiliary, to emphasize that one thing happens very soon after another thing:
Scarcely had they left the station than the train stopped.
