what is an adverb of

0:40

manner well remember an adverb is a word

0:45

that modifies a verb or an action so it

0:51

explains how we do

something we talked how did we talk we

0:59

talked talked

1:01

loudly he drove the

1:04

car how did he drive he drove the car

1:09

quickly to make most adverbs all we have

1:14

to do is add

1:17

ly to the end of that

1:21

adjective sad becomes

sadly quiet becomes quietly

1:30

Softly

2:00

2:33

3:33

3:44

well also if an adjective already ends

anything for example

weekly okay so where does the adverb go

4:16

in the
