Adverbs of Manner, Adverbs of Time, Adverbs of Place, Adverbs of Frequency in English
Adverbs
When using the English language, we unconsciously use many words and phrases. Using these words and phrases correctly and enriching your sentences will allow you to speak English more accurately. It is necessary to use such words intensively, especially when making a presentation or preparing homework. Today, we will discuss what is an adverb with you. Adverbs, when added to the sentences, are the words that give information about how the predictions in the sentence are performed. If you remember, when we dealt with adjectives before, we mentioned that adjectives describe nouns. It is possible to say that adverbs characterize the verbs.

In order to use the adverbs correctly and to find out which word is the adverb in the sentence, we first need to ask the “How” question. As you see different examples in the continuation of the article, ask the question “How?” and easily find the adverb in the sentence.
The Difference Between Adverbs and Adjectives
To understand adverbs, you first need to understand the differences between adverbs and adjectives. Because these two word groups are often confused with each other. I have already mentioned that adverbs describe verbs and adjectives characterize nouns. In our content today, we will see two examples of this together with you.
- Your red car is running really fast. ->> In this example, we see that red is used in order to specify the ‘’car’’. This means that ‘’red’’ is an adjective.
- Your house is thoroughly cleaned. ->> In this example, we see that a passive voice is used. Remember that it does not matter whether the passive or active voice is used while you are trying to find the adverb. Here, the action is ‘’cleaned’’. So we ask to the sentence ‘’How was the cleaning?’’. Then we easily get the answer: ‘’Thoroughly’’. This is our adverb.
