Adverbs

Een bijwoord (adverb) geeft informatie over een actie (een werkwoord) in een zin. Veel bijwoorden eindigen op -ly.

Voorbeelden: 

1. I quickly finished the game. 

   (How did I finish the game?)

2. You have to shout loudly to enter the cave. 

   (How do you have to shout to enter the cave?)                                     3. If you walk quietly, you won't wake the dragon. 

    (How must you walk if you don't want to wake the dragon?)

Exceptions

Let op: er zijn een paar bijwoorden die niet op -ly eindigen:

good - well

fast - fast

hard - hard

Voorbeelden:

1. If you play well, you can win a prize.
   
2. You have to run fast to escape from the zombies.
   
3. He is a great gamer because he practises hard every day.
   

Spelling Rules

Veel bijvoeglijke naamwoorden kunnen worden omgezet in bijwoorden.              In most cases, we do this by simply adding -ly to the end of the adjective. 

suddenly                      brightly                   generally

e.g. The bright light...(adj)                     The light shone brightly. (adv)

Wanneer het bijvoeglijk naamwoord waarvan je een bijwoord wilt maken eindigt op -y, je moet de -y veranderen in een -i en dan -ly toevoegen.

happily                         angrily                      lazily

e.g. She sang a happy song. (adj)        She sang the song happily. (adv)

Als het bijvoeglijk naamwoord eindigt op -le, verwijder dan de -e en vervang deze door een -y.

terribly                          incredibly                 understandably

e.g. The film was terrible. (adj)             They acted terribly in the film. (adv)

Adverbs Survey

Ask and answer the following questions in pairs:

• What is something that you do quickly?  I eat quickly.
  
• What is something that you can do easily?
  
• What is something you have successfully completed?
  
• What is something you rarely do?
• What is a favour that you’ve gladly done for someone?
  

Remember one thing that your partner tells you and share it with the class. e.g. (Name) eats quickly.

Where can an adverb go in a sentence?

If you always put an adverb in the same place in a sentence, it can make your writing seem repetitive. 

Read the following sentences.

She put the key in the door cautiously. She entered the house silently. She picked up the post excitedly.

These sentences all sound the same. You can solve this by moving the adverb. Look at the following choices.

Cautiously, she put the key in the door. She cautiously put the key in the door. She put the key in the door cautiously.

Find the Adverbs (8):
 

1. Name the adverbs in the following passage.

2. What do each of the adverbs tell us.

I got up from my bed sleepily. Foolishly, I had left it too late as usual. I searched frantically for my school uniform, finding it eventually in various extremely strange places. After rapidly eating my breakfast, I left the house and ran to catch the bus.

Curiously, the bus stop was unusually quiet. I suddenly realised the reason. It was a school closure day.

Re-place the adverbs:

In the following passage, the adverbs are always at the end of the sentence. Rewrite the passage so that the adverbs are in different places in the sentences.

The manager had agreed to hold the party in the function room enthusiastically. She walked towards the round table in the centre of the room cheerfully. She took orders quickly and efficiently. A party of twelve was already singing merrily.

Backstory Example for Video

Twenty years after we won the war against the Omnics, we were no closer to living together in peace. The building of a new home for the Omnics in London was supposed to be the first step in improving human-robot relations but it never had a chance...

The Omnic extremist group 'Malsector' launched a surprise attack on King's Row; hundreds were killed and thousands more were displaced as they took control. Now, they are hunting down the last of the survivors. It could be the beginning of a new war between humans and Omnics unless we can stop them. 

Commander Morrison has sent our strike team to liberate the city. It's my first mission and the only way to saye my home. I hope we're not too late....

Some, a lot of, any

Must, should, have to/has to
