Important Points
to Remember!


An adverb is a word that tells more about a verb (action word).
 
An adverb can tell how an action takes place.
 
To find the adverb it is helpful to find the verb (action word), and
       then ask yourself how the action is happening.
 
Look for the word that ends in ly.
