BE/IE_Quantifiers and Qualifiers by 10/22/2018 20 RMM However, qualifiers are not Adverbs of Degree
The reasons are:
1. They do not modify verbs. 2. With one or two exceptions, like really and fairly, qualifiers do not have adverb derivational suffixes. 3. They cannot be made comparative or superlative . 4. They do not intensify.
