Adverbs - part 1.

Meghnaa G.

Just as an adjective tells us something about the noun, an adverb tells us something more about a verb. It tells us how/where/when the action is done. An adverb adds more meaning to a verb.

Examples: The man talked loudly. (talked about how - loudly)

                 I met her yesterday. ( met when - yesterday).

                 They went out. ( went where - out)

 

Kind of Adverbs:

1. Adverb of manner: the adverb which tells us ' how an action is done' is called " Adverb of Manner". We always as the question ' how' to the verb.

Example: I know him well. ( how do I know him)

               The girl spoke slowly. (How did she speak)

2. Adverb of time: The adverb which tells us "when an action is done" is called ' Adverb of time'. We always ask the question 'when' to the verb.

Example: I met him yesterday. ( 'when' did I meet him)
She will reach soon. ( 'when' will she reach.)

3. Adverb of place: The adverb which tells us - where an action is done is called Adverb of place.

We always ask the question ' where' to the verb.

Example: As it was raining, we went inside.

               She ran upstairs.

Exercise :

1. Mahima laughed loudly.

2. Amita reads clearly.

3. He comes here daily.

4. My brother is out from the game.

5. The story is well written.

6. The train will be arriving shortly.
