WHAT IS AN ADVERB?
An adverb is a word that modifies (describes) a verb (he sings loudly), an adjective
(very tall), another adverb (ended too quickly), or even a whole sentence (Fortunately, I had
brought an umbrella). Adverbs often end in -ly, but some (such as fast) look exactly the
same as their adjective counterparts.

Example :
- Tom Longboat did not run badly.
- Tom is very tall.
- The race finished too quickly.
- Fortunately, Lucy recorded Tom’s win.

 ADVERB OF
TIME
Adverbs that change or qualify the
meaning of a sentence by telling us
when things happen are defined as
adverbs of time.

An adverb of time is just what you

might expect it to be – a word that
describes when, for how long, or how
often a certain action happened. You
will notice that many adverbs of time
are the same as adverbs of frequency.
There is quite a bit of overlap between
these two types of adverbs – so much
so that some instructors choose to
mention one or the other but not both.

 ADVERB OF
PLACE
Adverbs that change or qualify the
meaning of a sentence by telling us
where things happen are defined as
adverbs of place. Some instructors
refer to these words or phrases as
spatial adverbs. No matter what they
are called, these adverbs always answer
one important question: Where?
These simple rules for
adverbs of place will An adverb of place always
help you to use them the
right way
01 talks about the location
where the action of the
verb is being carried out.

Adverbs of place are

02 normally placed after a
sentence’s object or main
verb.

directional. For example:
03 Up, down, around, away,
north, southeast

apart

An adverb of place can

indicate an object’s
05 position in relation to
another object. For
example: Below, between,
above, behind, through,
around and so forth.
 ADVERB OF
FREQUENCY
Adverbs that change or qualify the meaning of
a sentence by telling us how often or how
frequently something happens are defined as
adverbs of frequency.

An adverb of frequency is exactly what it

sounds like – an adverb of time. Adverbs of
frequency always describe how often
something occurs, either in definite or
indefinite terms. An adverb that describes
definite frequency is one such as weekly,
daily, or yearly. An adverb describing
indefinite frequency doesn’t specify an exact
time frame; examples are sometimes, often,
and rarely.
These simple rules for
adverbs of frequency Always use adverbs of
will help you to use them
the right way
01 frequency to discuss how
often something happens.

Adverbs of frequency are

often used to indicate
02 routine or repeated
activities, so they are often
used with the present
simple tense.
If a sentence has only one verb, place the
adverb of frequency in the middle of the

03 sentence so that it is positioned after the

subject but before the verb. For example:
Tom never flies. He always takes the bus.
These simple rules for
adverbs of frequency
will help you to use them When a sentence contains
the right way
04 more than one verb, place
the adverb of frequency
before the main verb. For
example: They have often
visited Europe.

When using an adverb of

frequency in the negative
05 or in forming a question,
place it before the main
verb. For example: Do you
usually get up so late?
 ADVERB OF
MANNER
Adverbs of manner describe how
something happens. For example, it is
possible to walk or run at different
speeds. The words used to describe
walking or running at different speeds
(quickly or slowly for example) are
excellent examples of adverbs of
manner. They help the reader gain
greater insight into the way a written
scene is playing out. Comparing the
following sentences will help you to
understand how these adverbs change
the overall meaning of the sentences
they’re found in.
There are a few rules to
remember regarding When using these adverbs, be
adverbs of manner
01 careful not to place them
between the object and the
verb. They often fit best after
the sentence’s object or main
verb.

If there is a preposition before

02 the object, the adverb of
manner may be placed either
before the preposition or after
the sentence’s object.

Add emphasis by placing an adverb of

manner before both the verb and
03 object, and when these adverbs are
placed at the beginning of a sentence,
they catch the reader’s attention.
 ADVERB OF
DEGREE
An adverb of degree is used to discuss
the degree or intensity of an adjective,
an action, or another adverb. There are
so many adverbs of degree that it’s
impossible to list them all in one short
guide. Some common examples of
adverbs of degree follow.
