Adverbs of Manner

USE

We use adverbs of manner to describe the verb. We use an adverb of manner to say how something happens or how we do something.

• It rained heavily. (=We are describing how it rained.)
• He always replies quickly. (=We are describing how he walks)

• POSITION 

• We use adverbs of manner after the verb or, if there is an object, after verb + object.

  • He drives carefully.
  • She plays the guitar well. 

  • MODIFIERS

    We can use very, really, quite before an adverb of manner.

    • It rained quite heavily. 
    • He drives quite carefully. 
    • She plays the guitar really well.

ADJECTIVES ENDING IN -LY

Some words end in -ly, but they are adjectives, NOT adverbs: friendly, lovely, silly. 

We CANNOT transform these adjectives into adverbs of manner.
