I added (as a trifling jest)

And in my humorous way
sabordinate clause.

Answer 2

And in my humorous way, I added (as a trifling jest)

In this sentence, the figure of speech being used is hyperbaton.

This is a figure of speech in which the normal order of words is inverted, usually to put more emphasis on one section than the other.

Normally, this sentence would be written as 'I added in my humorous way', but to put emphasis on 'my humorous way', it is brought forward before the verb.
