An adverb of place, sometimes called spatial adverbs, will help explain where an action happens. Adverbs of place will be associated with the action of the verb in a sentence, providing context for direction, distance and position
What is an Adverb?
An adverb is a word that is used to change, modify or qualify several types of words including an adjective, a verb, a clause, or another adverb
Types of Adverbs
There are 4 types of adverbs
-Adverbs of Frequency
-Adverbs of Manner
-Adverbs of Time
-Adverbs of Place
Adverbs Of Time
Harvey forgot his lunch yesterday and again today.
I have to go now.
We first met Julie last year.
Adverbs of time, while seemingly similar to adverbs of frequency, tell us when something happens. Adverbs of time are usually placed at the end of a sentence.
Adverbs Of Manner
-She passed the exam easily.
-They walk quickly to catch the train.
-The dinner party went badly.
An adverb of manner will explain how an action is carried out. Very often adverbs of manner are adjectives with -ly added to the end, but this is certainly not always the case
Adverbs Of Frequency
Examples
-The adverb is usually placed before the main verb.
-I can normally make the shot.
-I will always love
Adverbs of frequency are used to express time or how often something occurs.
