Your answer is below pls follow

Explanation:

An adverb is a word that modifies (describes) a verb (he sings loudly), an adjective (very tall), another adverb (ended too quickly), or even a whole sentence (Fortunately, I had brought an umbrella). Adverbs often end in -ly, but some (such as fast) look exactly the same as their adjective counterparts.

Answer:

An adverb is a word/a set of words that modifies verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. It tells when, where, and how an action is performed or indicates the quality or degree of the action.

Many adverbs end in -ly but some words which end in -ly (such as friendly) are not adverbs. Many words can be both adverbs and adjectives according to their activity in the sentence.

Example:

  • Robin is always hungry for success.
  • I love her very much.
  • He is running fast.
  • Alex works hard.
  • He wrote that willingly.

Adverb Clauses and Adverb Phrases are clauses and phrases that modify the verbs, adjectives or other adverbs in the sentence.

Example:

He ran toward the bus until he was tired. (Adverb Clause)

He came carrying his box with two hands. (Adverb Phrase)

We were panicked without any reason. (Adverb Phrase)

Types of Adverbs:

Adverbs of Time/Frequency (When?)

Adverbs of Place/Direction (Where?)

Adverbs of Degree (How Much?)

Adverbs of Manner (How?)

Adverbs of Time/Frequency (When?)

Adverbs of time/frequency indicate time or frequency of the action in the sentence. They answer the question ‘when/how frequently is the action performed?’.

Always, never, often, eventually, now, frequently, occasionally, once, forever, seldom, before, Sunday, Monday, 10 AM, 12 PM, etc. are common adverbs of time/frequency.

  • Example: I went to school a little late yesterday.
  • He always gets a good result.
  • I will leave Monday.
  • He smokes occasionally.

Adverbs of Place/Direction (Where?)

Adverbs of place/direction that indicate place/direction of the action in the sentence. They answer the question ‘ where is the action performed?’.

Across, over, under, in, out, through, backward, there, around, here, sideways, upstairs, in the park, in the field, in that place, etc. are some common adverbs of place/direction.

Example:

  • I went through the jungle.
  • He plays in the field.
  • Alex is going to school.
  • He is staying at my home.

Adverbs of Degree (How Much?)

Adverbs that express the importance/degree/level of the action in the sentence are called adverbs of degree. They answer the question ‘how much is the action performed?’.

Completely, nearly, entirely, less, mildly, most, thoroughly, somewhat, excessively, much, etc. are common adverbs of degree.

Example:

  • She completely forgot about her anniversary.
  • I read the newspaper thoroughly.
  • I am so excited about the new job.
  • Robin hardly studies

Adverbs of Manner (How?)

Adverbs that express the manner/approach/process of the action in the sentence are called adverbs of manner. They answer the question ‘how is the action performed?’.

Beautifully, equally, thankfully, carefully, handily, quickly, coldly, hotly, resentfully, earnestly, nicely, tirelessly, etc. are common adverbs of manner. These adverbs usually end in ly.

Example:

  • Let's divide the prizes equally.
  • Please, handle the camera carefully.
  • Mike is walking slowly.
  • He is running fast.
