What to Focus On
- An adverb can modify a verb, an adjective, or another adverb.
- Adverbs give extra detail about action, quality, or degree.
- Many adverbs answer questions like how, when, where, or to what extent.
- Many adverbs are formed by adding -ly to adjectives.
- Some words have the same form as both adjective and adverb.
- Not every word ending in -ly is an adverb.
- Hard and hardly are not the same.
- Direct means straight, while directly means soon.
