Adverbs

Adverbs
Adverb, please tell us a little about yourself.
Adverb: Well I am glad that you asked.  I play an extremely important role in sentences because I describe verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs.  When anyone wants to know when, how, how often, and to what extent, they simply look to the adverb.
Here are examples of what I do:
An extremely angry dog barked very loudly all day at everyone.
Notice in this sentence that I tell you how angry the dog is (extremely angry).  I also tell you how loudly the dog barked (very loudly).  Finally, I tell you when or how often the dog barked (all day).
It’s easy to find adverbs. Just go to the verb and ask the following questions:
Verb where?
Verb when?
Verb why?
Verb how?
An adverb is any word or group of words that answers where? when? why? and how? about verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs.
Summary: What is an adverb?

An adverb is a word or a group of words that gives us more information about a verb, another adverb, or an adjective. Adverbs answer the following questions about verbs:


  • where?
  • when?
  • why?
  • to what extent?
  • how?


Example:
He put the milk in the kitchen.
Put where? Answer: "In the kitchen"
The phrase, “in the kitchen,” is playing the part of an adverb.
