ADVERBS
ADVERBS – a word that modifies or describes an action. They may also
describe an ADJECTIVE or another ADVERB.
ADVERBS tell how, where or when an action takes place. They often end in “-ly” but not always.
Ex. – Suddenly, the students understood.(When did they understand?)
Mark drew the lines evenly. (How did he draw the lines?)
Some examples of words that end in –ly that are NOT ADVERBS are:
curly - sly - burly
