ADVERB is  one of the four major word classes, along with nouns, verbs, and adjectives.”

Example :

- I am very happy

- Why are you here

-  we meet him yesterday

Adverbs are used to tell time (when), place (where), reason (why), manner (how), degree (how much), to what extent and frequency (how often).

Example: 

- can finish all of my tasks and go home early.  (Time)

- I’m not allowed to play outside the house after 6 PM. (Place)

- we shall therefore ignore him.  (Reason)

- Anything you can do, I can do better. (Manner)

- Sometimes love just isn’t enough. (Degree)

- Sometimes I wish I had never been born. ( Frequency)

FORMING ADVERB

Many adverb are formed from adjectives, with addition of the suffix "ly" However, there are some that do not end in -ly.

Example : 

Adjectives    adverb

 -Slow            -  slowly

- soft              - softly

- great           - greatly

Type of adverb

In addition to the functions of adverbs, there are also types that can be distinguished. What are they?

1. Interrogative adverb

    If you think that an adverb is an explanatory word for a verb, you are very wrong. Adverbs can also be in the form of question words, such as how, when, why, and where. Example: 

• Why are you here?
• When is it going to stop?
• Where did the money come from?
• How long do we have to participate in this training?
• How much time do I have to set aside every week?

2. Conjunctive Adverb

This adverb functions as a transition word combining and linking independent clauses.

This adverb includes words such as accordingly, also, alternatively, certainly, accordingly, finally, nevertheless, moreover, previously, therefore, and so on. 

Example: 

• I can’t leave the house today, therefore I delegate the meeting to the vice president.
• She certainly has what it takes to become an actress.
• According to the GPS, there’s busy traffic ahead of us. We can gamble and go ahead, or alternatively take a different route.

CONJUNCTION

GRAMMAR

a word used to connect clauses or sentences or to coordinate words in the same clause (e.g. and, but, if ).

the action or an instance of two or more events or things occurring at the same point in time or spaces.

Conjunctions have two basic functions or "jobs":

1. Coordinating conjunctions

2. Subordinating conjunctions

Here are some example conjunctions:

Coordinating conjunctions 

and, but, or, nor, for, yet, so 

 Subordinating conjunctions

 although, because, since, unless

Conjunctions have three basic formats:

1. single word
   for example: and, but, because, although
2. compound (often ending with as or that)
   for example: provided that, as long as, in order that
3. correlative (surrounding an adverb or adjective)
   for example: so...that

Coordinating conjunctions always come between the words or clauses that they join.

Subordinating conjunctions usually come at the beginning of the subordinate clause.
