Adverbs. Wait! Hold on. Don’t panic. Despite what you may have heard or how frustrating grammar rules might have been to you, “adverbs” does not have to be a dirty word. Adverbs are, in fact, your friend. They improve your writing and vocational abilities, allow you to develop more coherent arguments, and are absolutely inescapable.
Here. Let me give you a basic idea of what adverbs are—they describe a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. If that doesn’t mean anything to you, don’t sweat it. Here’s another way to look at them: they answer five, count ‘em, five questions: How, Where, When, How Much, and How Often.
See? That wasn’t so bad, was it? Adverbs can be confusing to people, but trust me—you use them more often than you might expect, and once you get the hang of it, they aren’t hard to understand at all. Soon, even if it doesn’t come easily to you like it doesn’t to many people, you’ll be nailing it. Guaranteed.
