Adverbs – Part One
By Spencer
What is an Adverb?
An adverb is a word that modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb.
Here’s some examples:

Adjective Form:

- dear
- perfect
Adverb Form:
- happily
- clearly
- closely

Of course, not all adverbs in in ly as the following list demonstrates:
- quite
- very
- much
- right
- too
- never
- soon
- here
- now
- then
- also
- often
- there
- hard
Adverbs tell you:
- When?
- Where?
- How?
- Why?
- How much?
- Or To What Extent?
