  1. Adverbios

  2. Adverbs are words that describe or modify verbs, adjectives or other adverbs. They are used to provide details in writing. • They are also used to tell us when, how, where something is done. • Exs: He ran quickly. (“quickly” describes how he “ran”) • She spoke more slowly than he. (“slowly” describe how she “spoke”) (“more” modifies “slowly” *They are placed after the verb.

  3. Estructuras Esenciales de Adverbios: (Qualifying advs. = tell how something is done) I. Most adverbs are formed by adding –mente to the feminine form of the adjective. This = “ly” in English:

  4. II. Note that when an adj. has a written accent, the accent remains in the adv.

  5. III. Adj. that have only one form for both masc. and fem. add –mente to that form

  6. IV. Another way to form an adv. is to use con + sing. form of noun

  7. Ejemplos con Adverbios: • Ex: Los turistas viajaron con cuidado. • Ex: Yo juego al baloncesto frecuentamente. • Ex: Quien me saludo cariñosamente? • Ex: Cuando Juan estuvo en Madrid, fue al Parque de Retiro diariamente. • Ex: La profesora enseño’ la leccion con perfeccion. • A ellos les gusto’ la comida latina, especialmente el arroz y frijoles negros.

  8. When two adverbs modify the same verb, only the second adv. uses the -mente ending. The first adv. is the same as the fem. sing. adj. form: Ex: Juan trabajó lenta y cuidosamente. = Juan worked slowly and carefully. Ex: Los chicos hablaron clara pero rápidamente. = the boys spoke clearly but quickly.

  9. Exceptions: Some adverbs don’t follow any pattern and must be memorized. These are advs. of manner and come after the verb: • Bastante = quite ex: Estoy bastante bien. • Demasiado = too ex: Hace demasiado calor. • Mal = badly ex: Luis canta mal. • Mucho = a lot ex: Ellos hablan mucho. • Muy = very ex: Eres muy cansado hoy. • Nunca = never ex: Ella nunca hace la tarea (nunca). • Poco = little ex: Yo comprendi’ poco. • Siempre = always ex: Estudio siempre.
