In this ESL grammar exercise, students are introduced to adverbs that modify verbs, and they can practice identifying adverbs (and the verbs they modify) in various sentences.
Adverbs are words that modify or describe verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. When adverbs modify verbs, they tell us more about how, when, where, or to what extent an action occurs.
Examples of Adverbs Modifying Verbs:
The English grammar lesson below introduces adverbs that modify verbs in a clear and simple manner that is easy for beginner or intermediate English learners to understand. Our series of ESL grammar lessons on subjects and verbs introduce these concepts and reinforce them through helpful and instructive exercises.
This lesson is available for free download, and you can download many more English grammar lessons focusing on all different parts of speech (nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs and lots more!) in our comprehensive, beginner-level ESL grammar textbook Great, Great Grammar! (Book 1: Parts of Speech).
