As the 'answer' has been posted I would like to respond to some of the comment.

Already gone to work vs. Gone to work already

In the first one the emphisis is that she has already gone or left wherever she was, and work is mearly stated to allow the listener to know where she had gone

In the second one she has gone to work already, her being at work being the important part of the sentence. (possibly she left earlier then usual for work, or had lots to do at work that day or an early start time)

Both are right, it's just a matter of what part of her being gone is more important to you as the speaker.

Don't forget, you can always be really weird and say,

"To work, she has already gone."

Hi! ^_^

Espero que ésa no sea su tarea, no podemos hacer su tarea para ti, pero sólo podemos revisarla. wink

Here's the right order: she's already gone to work!

I like this order best, but there is more than one correct order. - pesta, Aug 18, 2011
It's okay to put already at the end. - pesta, Aug 18, 2011
Yes, English word order can have so many different forms, and they would all be correct. - 00b6f46c, Aug 18, 2011
Strange, contractions in English are odd. "She's gone to work already" sounds normal, and while "she's already gone to work" is correct, it would seem more normal to say "she has already gone to work." - Fredbong, Aug 18, 2011
