2. What is adverb?
An adverb is a word or an expression that generally modifies a verb, an
adjective, another adverb, a determiner, a clause, a preposition, or a
sentence. Adverbs typically express manner, place, time, frequency, degree,
or level of certainty by answering questions such as how, in what way, when,
where, to what extent.

3. He is often wandering the streets
Slowly she picked up the knife
He gently woke the sleeping woman

5. Adverbs that are employed in a sentence to describe the
location or the place where an action is taking place are called
adverbs of place. They answer the question 'where'. They are
mostly found after the main verb or the object in a sentence.
What is Adverb of Place?
Example:
John looked around but he couldn't see the monkey.
I searched everywhere I could think of.
I'm going back to school.

6. What is Adverb of Manner and Time?
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.
An adverb of time is a word that provides
information about when an action takes
place. It tells us when, for how long, or
how often something happens. These
adverbs can modify verbs, adjectives, or
other adverbs.
Example in a sentence:
- "She will arrive tomorrow." (Adverb of
time: tomorrow answers the question
"When will she arrive?")

7. Adverbs of degree tell us about the intensity of something. Adverbs of
degree are usually placed before the adjective, adverb, or verb that they
modify, although there are some exceptions. The words "too", "enough",
"very", and "extremely" are examples of adverbs of degree.
An adverb of frequency describes how often an action happens. There are
six main adverbs of frequency that we use in English: always, usually (or
normally), often, sometimes, rarely, and never.

8. A conjunctive adverb is a word or phrase that connects two independent
clauses (complete sentences) while also showing the relationship
between them. These adverbs can express relationships such as cause
and effect, contrast, sequence, or comparison. Unlike coordinating
conjunctions (like and or but), conjunctive adverbs often require a
semicolon or period before them when connecting clauses.
