What to Focus On
- An adverb describes a verb, adjective, or another adverb.
- It gives more information about an action — how, when, where, how often, or how much.
- Adverbs make sentences more descriptive and clear.
- Adverbs of Manner: Tell 'how' something is done.
- Adverbs of Place: Tell 'where' something happens.
- Adverbs of Time: Tell 'when' something happens.
- Answer the question: How?
- Often end in -ly when formed from adjectives.
- Some common adverbs of manner do not end in -ly (e.g., fast, hard, well).
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Adverbs only describe verbs.
All words ending in -ly are adverbs.
Adverbs always come after the verb.
