Adverbs

Adverbs would be *bijwoord* in Dutch.

We use adverbs to:

• describe a verb 
• describe an adjective / another adverb

                          Adverbs usually end with -ly

(tells us in what way someone does something)

(professionally made = really professionally made)

Adverbs

Examples

• The cannibals breath heavily when they think about food.
• The ship looked beautifully on the sandy beach.
• Jack behaved very awkwardly when being chased.
• Jack's crew witnessed completely crazy situations.

Adverbs

Adverbs -LY

Adverbs are normally formed by adding -LY to the end of an adjective.

E.g. Quick - Quickly 

For adjectives that end in -l or -e, we simply add -ly:

special + ly = specially 

terminal + ly = terminally

literal + ly = literally

nice + ly = nicely

polite + ly = politely

spelling

• true - truly
• full - fully
• gentle - gently

Adverbs ending in -Y

For adjectives that end in -y, we remove the -y and add -ily:

crazy  -  crazily 

happy  -  happily

Adverbs ending in -LE

For adjectives that end in a consonant + le we remove the -e and add -y:

terrible  -  terribly 

horrible  -  horribly

noble  -  nobly

idle -  idly

Adverbs ending in -IC

If the adjective ends in -ic, we add -ally:

ironic  -  ironically

enthusiastic  -  enthusiastically

realistic  -  realistically

Except: public  -  publicly

Irregular Adverbs

Some adverbs are irregular:

 

fast - fast     The man drives very fast (quickly).

good - well   You speak English very well.
