MODIFIERS – ADVERBS What is an Adverb? A word that modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb is called an adverb. Modify means to change. Since adverbs change the meanings of verbs and adjectives, adverbs are also called modifiers. • Adverbs answer the questions: How? When? Where? or To What Extent? • Many adverbs end in the letters -ly. • When two actions are being compared, the comparative form of the adverb is used. • When three or more actions are being compared, the superlative form of the adverb is used. • When using the comparative and the superlative form of adverbs, be careful to avoid double comparisons (e.g. use ‘fastest’ rather than ‘most fastest’). Try This! 1] In the following sentence, choose an adverb to modify the verb in bold print. The king rode his horse. a] galloping b] brave c] skillfully d] old 2] Choose the adverb in this sentence. Mrs. Parks easily memorized the names of her new students. a] Mrs. Parks b] easily c] memorized d] names 3] Choose the comparative form of this adverb: quickly. a] most quickest b] quickest c] more quickly d] most quickly © Copyright NewPath Learning.
