He behaved badly.□Did you sleep well?□He came very quickly.The adverbs loud(ly), cheap(ly), quick(ly) and slow(ly)are often used without -ly in everyday English:□Don’t speak so loud(ly).267THEADVERBThe adverb pretty can mean “very, quite”.
It is usedbefore an adjective or an adverb:□ pretty expensive/muchSome adjectives end in -ly. If we want to use thesewords as adverbs, we say: “in a ... m anner/w ay/fashion”:□Meg is a friendly girl. She always greetsme in a friendly way.□ That was a cowardly thing to do. You actedin a cowardly way.We do not use adverbs after link verbs such as to be,become, feel, get, look and seem. We use adjectivesafter such verbs:□ Sue fe lt happy, (not “Sue felt happily” )□ Nobody seemed amused.□I am not sure.Fixed phrases: deeply hurt, painfully embarrassed,highly respected, bitterly cold, greatly appreciative,badly needed.□ She was highly respected in her village.□ A new playground for our children is badlyneeded.□ She was deeply hurt by his words but didn’tsay a word.Adverbs of manner go before main verbs, afterauxiliary verbs or at the end of the sentence:□ They quickly returned.□He was anxiously waiting for their reply.□ She smiled kindly.We say “fast asleep” and “wide awake” (not “very” ):□ The children are fast asleep now but anhour ago they were wide awake.EXERCISESIc)I (B,C) Choose the appropriate word from thosein brackets and state whether it is an adjective oran adverb.1.a)b)c)2.a)b)c)3.4.5.a)b)c)a)b)c)a)b)They talked o f .............
