Return to the General Commenting page.

Adverbs answer these questions: //when, where, why, how, how much, in what way?// They modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. Examples--//very, too, loudly, finally, yesterday, next, daringly.// [|(From the Literacy Education Online article "Grammar Condensed")]

Examples: 1. swiftly 2. boldy 3. wisely 4. foolishly 5. well 6. loudly

When adverbs are used to join two clauses together they are called **conjunctive adverbs**. Examples are therefore, consequently, and finally. Can you name more?
