English Language and Grammar - Adverbs

via Skillshare

Overview

Adverbs modify verbs in the same way as adjectives modify nouns.
In fact, one common way to make adverbs is to add 'ly' to an adjective and this is the first lesson in this course.

Adverbs add information about what is happening.

They also modify adjectives and other adverbs.

The course continues with relative, comparative and superlative adverbs.

We then look at adverbs that are used to ask questions.

Finally, we look at different kinds of adverbs, namely adverbs of:


certainty,
degree,
manner,
place,
time,
frequency,
viewpoint and
opinion.
