Adverb
An adverb describes or modifies a verb,
an adjective, or another adverb, but never a
noun. It usually answers the questions of
when, where, how, why, under what
conditions, or to what degree. Adverbs
often end in -ly.
Example:
The young girl brought me a very long letter
from the teacher, and then she quickly
disappeared. Oh my!
Tony was so sleepy that he could hardly
keep his eyes open during the meeting.
Remember:
*Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs.
*Adverbs answer the questions where, when, how, and to
what extent.
*If a word is modifying a noun/pronoun, it is an adjective,
not an adverb.
