1.Presentation of new material

     T.: Today we are going to learn about adverbs. (Card #1)

 Let’s read and translate the rules.

Definition

Adverbs are words that modify

• a verb (He drove slowly. — How did he drive?)
• an adjective (He drove a very fast car. — How fast was his car?)
• another adverb (She moved quite slowly down the aisle. — How slowly did she move?)

Adverbs tell us in what way someone does something. Adverbs can modify verbs (here: drive), adjectives or other adverbs.

Adjectives tell us something about a person or a thing.      

Mandy drives carefully.

             

Adjective + -ly = adverb

dangerous       dangerously

careful             carefully

nice                 nicely

horrible           horribly

easy                 easily

electronic        electronically

irregular forms

good    well

fast      fast

hard     hard

• If the adjective ends in -y, change -y to -i. Then add -ly.
• happy - happily
• but: shy - shyly

• If the adjective ends in -le, the adverb ends in -ly.
• Example: terrible - terribly

• If the adjective ends in -e, then add -ly.
• Example: safe - safely

Use of adverbs

• to modify verbs:

 The soccer team played badly last Saturday.

• to modify adjectives:

 It was an extemely bad match.

• to modify adverbs:

 The soccer team played extremely badly last Wednesday.

• to modify quantities:

 There are quite a lot of people here.

• to modify sentences:

Unfortunately, the flight to Dallas had been cancelled.

Types of adverbs

1) Adverbs of manner

 quickly

kindly

2) Adverbs of degree

 very

rather

3) Adverbs of frequency

 often

sometimes

4) Adverbs of time

now

today

5) Adverbs of place

here

nowhere

How do know whether to use an adjective or an adverb?

John is a careful driver. -> In this sentences we say how John is - careful.

If we want to say that the careful John did not drive the usual way yesterday - we have to use the adverb: John did not drive carefully yesterday.

Here is another example:

I am a slow walker. (How am I? -> slow -> adjective)

 I walk slowly. (Ho do I walk? -> slowly -> adverb)

Adjective or Adverb after special verbs

Both adjectives and adverbs may be used after look, smell and taste. Mind the change in meaning.

Here are two examples: adjective      adverb

The pizza tastes good.

(How is the pizza?)     Jamie Oliver can taste well.

(How can Jamie Oliver taste?)

Peter's feet smell bad.

(How are his feet?)     Peter can smell badly.

(How can Peter smell?)

Do not get confused with good/well.

Linda looks good.

(What type of person is she?)

Linda looks well.

(How is Linda? -> She may have been ill, but now she is fit again.)

How are you? - I'm well, thank you.

One can assume that in the second/third sentence the adverb well is used, but this is wrong.

well can be an adjective (meaning fit/healthy), or an adverb of the adjective good.

Conclusion:

 Use the adjective when you say something about the person itself.

 Use the adverb, when you want to say about the action.
