For the words that end with “-y”, “-y” becomes “-i”, it takes “ly”, and for words that end with “-ll”, it takes only “-y”. Words ending with “-ic” will take “-aly”. For the words that end with “-e”, “-e” falls, “-ly” takes. Words such as “ver, well and near” that do not receive attachments are envelopes.
Examples: Easly, commonly, fully, electronicaly, simply, monthly, wards, sideways, northwards, clockwise, crosswise
Note: The order of the envelope in the sentence is “manner + place + frequency + time” and its translation is made from the last. The order of envelopes of the same type is written from private to general.
For example; the car was tested thoroughly in the laboratory several times last year.
Note: The science names that end with the “s” tag are singular and can be translated either by themselves or by taking the science tag in translation.
For example; “Physics”
