word order - "Learning always" vs "always learning"


What is the difference between learning always and always learning in terms of grammar and connotation? If the connotation is the same then which is preferred?



Answer



Always usually goes before the verb. Its placement after the verb may be an instance of anastrophe, a change in word order used to emphasise always.
