Adverbs of manner
- are words that tell us how
the verb is being performed.
They describe the action and
are usually found after the verb.
We form adverbs by using an
adjective + -ly
Rules for adverbs of manner:
Adverbs of manner are
made by adding -ly to the
adjective:
bad - badly
glad - gladly
sad - sadly
proud - proudly
When the word ends in a -y
(for example happy) we must
remove the -Y and add -ily:
busy-busily
happy - happily
easy - easily
angry - angrily
When the word ends in –l,
we must add -LY.
painful - painfully
beautiful – beautifully
careful – carefully
joyful – joyfully
wilful - wilfully
