Adding details to sentences
To add information to subjects and objects we can use
adjectives. To add information to verbs, we use
adverbs. These create groups of words that form
phrases, many words referring to one idea (noun, verb, object, location, time, etc.).
The tired old man swept the floor. (The whole noun phrase forms the subject.)
They ate too much chocolate cake. (The whole noun phrase forms the object.)
We
are watching films on Netflix. (The whole verb form forms the verb.)
