Resume Adverb & Conjunction

#Adverb

Usually used to describe or modify a verb (verb), adjective (adjective), or other adverb.

However, adverbs never describe a noun and usually answer the questions how, when, where, why, under what conditions, or to what degree.

Not only that, adverbs of an adjective usually end in -ly particles, such as deeply, extremely, happily, fairly, and others, but there are also adverbs that are not derived from adjectives such as very, somewhat, only, quite, and so on.

The kinds of adverbs in English are:

• Adverb of time (early, recently, yesterday, now, tonight)

• Adverb of manner (fast, hard,

slowly, softly, quickly)

• Adverb of degree (enough, quite, so,

too, very)

• Adverb of modality (likely, maybe,

perhaps, possibly, unlikely)

• Adverb of frequency (always, barely, daily, often, sometimes) • Adverb of place (away, behind, here,

nearby, somewhere)

• Adverb of focus (also, even, just, mainly, only)

#Conjunction

These parts of speech serve to connect words, phrases, or clauses and also to show the relationship between the elements of the sentence that are connected.

There are several types of conjunction, namely:

• Coordinate conjunction (menghubungkan dua konstruksi gramatikal yang sama): And, but, nor, or, yet

• Correlative conjunction (digunakan berpasangan): Between … and, either … or, from … to, rather … than, if … then.

• Subordinate conjunction (membentuk adverbial clause): After, because, before, although, when.

• Conjunctive adverb (menghubungkan dengan logis dua independent clause yang berurutan): At last, besides, however, hence, then.
