ADVERBIOS DE MODO

ADVERBS OF MANNER ARE USED TO TELL US THE WAY OR HOW SOMETHING IS DONE. AN ADVERB CAN BE ADDED TO A
VERB TO MODIFY ITS MEANING. ADVERBS OF MANNER ARE INVARIABLE WORDS THAT MODIFY VERBS, ADJECTIVES AND
OTHER ADVERBS. THEY CAN BE RECOGNIZED BECAUSE THEY ANSWER THE QUESTION HOW? TO BE ABLE TO IMPLY THE
WAY IN WHICH A CERTAIN ACTION IS CARRIED OUT.

REGLAS

ACCORDING TO THE FINAL TERMINATION OF THE ADJECTIVE WE MUST TAKE INTO ACCOUNT A SERIES OF RULES TO BE
ABLE TO WRITE IT CORRECTLY:

ADJECTIVES RULE EXAMPLES (ADJECTIVE - ADVERB)

FINISHED IN CONSONANT EASY- EASILY


-Y IS REPLACED BY ONE -I PLUS THE ENDING -LY
PLUS -Y ANGRY- ANGRILY

TRAGIC-TRAGICALLY
COMPLETED IN -IC THE ENDING -ALLY IS ADDED
MAGIC- MAGICALLY

HORRIBLE-HORRIBLY
FINISHED IN –LE -L IS RETAINED AND -E IS REPLACED BY -Y
TERRIBLE- TERRIBLY

BEAUTIFUL- BEAUTIFULLY
FINISHED IN –L -LY IS ADDED
GENERAL-GENERALLY

FAST- FAST
THEY DO NOT SUFFER ANY CHANGE
HARD- HARD
EXCEPTIONS

THEY TOTALLY CHANGE GOOD- WELL

ESTRUCTURA

* IN GENERAL, ADVERBS OF WAY ARE CONSTRUCTED FROM AN ADJECTIVE BY ADDING THE SUFFIX -LY AT THE END OF
THE WORD:

-QUICK   QUICKLY

-BAD   BADLY

* ADVERBS OF MANNER ARE USUALLY PLACED AFTER THE MAIN VERB OR AFTER THE OBJECT. "HE LEFT THE ROOM
QUICKLY."

IT CAN ALSO BE USED BEFORE THE VERB. 

-HE QUICKLY LEFT THE ROOM.


* NOTE THAT IF THE VERB APPEARS ACCOMPANIED BY A DIRECT OBJECT, THE ADVERB IS PLACED BEHIND THE DIRECT
OBJECT, NOT THE VERB: NOTE THAT IF THE VERB APPEARS ACCOMPANIED BY A DIRECT OBJECT, THE ADVERB IS PLACED
BEHIND THE DIRECT OBJECT, NOT THE VERB:

HE DRINKS HIS COFFEE QUICKLY / HE DRINKS QUICKLY HIS COFFEE.


DIRECT OBJECT ADVERB
