Ich hingegen habe
My first reaction to this is the verb seems to be in position 3 (?) if i correctly understand this. Should there be a comma there?
Great question!
Your reasoning makes perfect sense, but it doesn’t feel like position three to me for some reason.
It feels like it belongs to “ich”, like “ich selbst” or “ich vor allem” or something like “insbesondere der zweite Mann hat…”
So an “adverb” that modifies an entity, kind of.
ok, cool.
