Adverbs: uses
Adverbs are one of the four major
word classes, along with nouns,
verbs and adjectives. We use
adverbs to add more information
about a verb, an adjective, another
adverb, a clause or a whole sentence
and, less commonly, about a noun
phrase.
Examples:

Can you move it carefully? Its fragile.


Quickly! Were late.
She swims really well.
Dont go so fast.
You have to turn it clockwise.
Come over here.
Actually, I dont know her.
I havent seen them recently.
The bathrooms upstairs on the left.
meanings and functions

Adverbs have many different


meanings and functions.
They are especially important
for indicating the time,
manner, place, degree and
frequency of something.
Examples:

time I never get up early at the weekends.

manner Walk across the road carefully!

place When we got there, the tickets had sold out.

degree Its rather cold, isnt it?

frequency Im always losing my keys.
