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.
  • Late means not on time, while lately means recently.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Any word ending in -ly is an adverb.

Hard and hardly mean the same thing.

Late and lately are the same, so either word can fit anywhere.
