| - Adverbs is a series of short stories, written by Daniel Handler, about love.
- Just as adjectives are words that modify nouns, so adverbs are words that modify almost anything else, such as verbs, adjectives, other adverbs, determiners, prepositions, noun phrases, and even whole sentences. Typically, adverbs give information about place, time, circumstance, cause, manner, or degree.
- An adverb is a word used to tell more about a verb, and it almost always answers the questions how?, when?, where?, how often?, and in what way?. Words like slowly, loudly, carefully, quickly, or sadly are all adverbs. Adverbs usually, but not always, end in -ly.
- Adverbs are words belonging to the word class that provides circumstantial information about events. Adverbs of time tell us when something happens (tomorrow, soon, recently); adverbs of frequency tell us how often something happens (usually, often, never); adverbs of manner say how something happens (slowly, fast, well); adverbs of place say where something happens (here, away, home). Adverbs (a word class) should not be confused with adverbials (a clause element).
