ADVERBS OF MANNER (Adverbios de modo)
Primero
vamos a hablar de adjetivos. Estos modifican al sustantivo al adjudicarles una
cualidad, por ello en inglés siempre se colocan antes del sustantivo
En
cuando a los adverbios, modifican al
verbo y expresan de qué manera se realiza una determinada acción. La mayoría de
los adverbios se forman a partir de un adjetivo, agregando el sufijo –ly al final (salvo que se trate de un
adjetivo irregular)
Por
ejemplo:
This math exercises are very easy.
I solved them easily.
Good
(buena): adjetivo irregular, cuando se usa como adverbio cambia a well (bien).
That athlete is fast.
He runs fast.
Fast
(rápido): adjetivo irregular, cuando se usa como adverbio queda igual (fast: rápidamente)
