Presentation transcript:

 Adverbs modify (tell more about) verbs, adjectives and other adverbs.  For Example Name the adverb-  Modifies verb: The athlete ran quickly.  Modifies adjective: They swam in a pleasantly cool lake.  Modifies Adverb: Who can sit most quietly?

 Modifies verb: The athlete ran quickly.  Modifies adjective: They swam in a pleasantly cool lake.  Modifies Adverb: Who can sit most quietly?

 Adverbs can be either before or after the verbs they modify.  For example:  Briskly, the horse rounded the bend.  The horse rounded the bend briskly.  The horse briskly rounded the bend.

 Many adverbs end with the suffix –ly  Such as:  Slowly  Modestly  Thoughtfully  BUT there are many common adverbs that do not.  Such as:  Today  Much  Already  Also  Always  Well  Too  Never  Much  Late

 Intensifiers are adverbs that answer the question to what extent? For example: The game was the least interesting of all. We ate too much food. More examples: less, most, nearly, somewhat, so, really, very, quite

 The best way to be sure which word is the adverb, is to start by identifying the other familiar words in the sentence.  Once you identify the main nouns, verbs, and adjectives it is easier for you to identify if there is an adverb modifying them.

 You can combine sentences that are choppy and short into one flowing sentence.  For example:  Before-  The bears lumbered near our campsite. The bears were grizzlies. The bears lumbered sluggishly.  After-  The grizzly bears lumbered sluggishly near our campsite.
