The Relationship Between Verbs and Adverbs

A verb is an action word that tells us what someone (or something) does.

Adverbs tell us “how,” “when,” or “where” verbs happen.

Example

Ethan sleepily   changed into his pajamas.

Adverbs can describe verbs from many different places in a sentence.

Examples

Ethan changed   sleepily into his pajamas.

Ethan changed into his pajamas sleepily.

Sleepily,  Ethan changed  into his pajamas.
