INGILIZCE ADVERBS – TÜRKÇE KONU ANLATIMI

– to make adverbs we usually add -ly

eg. strange —> strangely

– when an adjective ends in ‘y’ it changes to an ‘i’ before adding -ly

eg. happy —> happily

– when an adjective ends in -ic we add -ally

eg. heroic —> heroically

– some adverbs are not made by adding -ly

eg. late —> late, good —> well,

– some adverbs have two forms and have a difference in meaning

eg. late = not on time; lately = recently

hard = opposite of soft; hardly = very little

fine = good/well; finely = in small pieces

– after verbs such as taste, smell, sound, seem and appear, we use an adjective instead of an adverb.

eg. That sounds great. NOT That sounds well.
