Adverb definition and examples

What is an adverb? An adverb is a word that is used to qualify or modify different types of words. The adverb can change a verb, an adjective, another adverb or a clause. Adverbs are the words that describe how, when, where something happened. Some of the adverbs end in -ly: strongly, carefully, etc. Not all adverbs have this ending. Adverbs are used to provide more information about an event or action. Learn adverbs with our adverbs app to remember the new words easily!
