Adverbs of Manner
What is an adverb of manner?
Adverbs of manner describe how something happens. For example, it is possible to walk or run at different speeds. The words used to describe walking or running at different speeds (quickly or slowly for example) are excellent examples of adverbs of manner. They help the reader gain greater insight into the way a written scene is playing out. Comparing the following sentences will help you to understand how these adverbs change the overall meaning of the sentences they’re found in.
The boys ran. (There is no adverb of manner in this sentence, so we can only imagine how fast the boys are running.)
The boys ran quickly. (The adverb of manner is quickly. It tells us that the boys are in a hurry.)
The boys were tired, so they ran more slowly than before. (The adverb of manner is slowly. It tells us that the boys are running, but they aren’t covering as much ground as they were before.)
There are a few rules to remember regarding adverbs of manner:
-When using these adverbs, be careful not to place them between the object and the verb. They often fit best after the sentence’s object or main verb.
-If there is a preposition before the object, the adverb of manner may be placed either before the preposition or after the sentence’s object.
-Add emphasis by placing an adverb of manner before both the verb and object, and when these adverbs are placed at the beginning of a sentence, they catch the reader’s attention.
As you read the following examples of adverbs of manner, you will notice how the same adverb can lend different meanings to sentences containing nearly the exact same set of words.
