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.
