Adverbs please!?
Thanks to all!
Favorite Answer
Adverbs typically answer such questions as how?, when?, where?, To what extent?, In what kind or how often? This function is called the adverbial function, and is realized not just by single words (i.e., adverbs) but by adverbial phrases and adverbial clauses. Adverbs also describe adjectives, verbs, and other adverbs.
An adverb as an adverbial may be a sentence element in its own right.
They treated her well. (SUBJECT + VERB + OBJECT + ADVERBIAL)
Alternatively, an adverb may be contained within a sentence element.
A ridiculously big headed boy stole my apple juice. (SUBJECT + ADVERBIAL + OBJECT +VERB)
quickly ran
terribly frightened
suddenly saddened
gracefully gallop
yanking hard
that’s all i could think of without going nuts first! lol…
Hope this helps
