Adjectives and adverbs

• Most adverbs are formed by adding -ly to the adjective

     beautifully, fluently

• If the adjective ends in -le we drop the e and add y : le-ly terrible - terribly

    horrible - horribly

• If the adjective adds in a consonant + y we change y to i and add ly
  

    easy - easily   happy - happily      lucky - luckily

   

Adjectives and adverbs

  Age or Length of Time 

  

 Should be hyphenated (met streepjes ertussen)

Sense verbs

Verbs like feel, sound, look, taste, appear and seem are called sense verbs. In English, we normally use sense verbs with adjectives (“I feel bad today”), not adverbs.

He feels ashamed.        It looks delicious           She seems happy
