Useful to knowAdverbs: a word or phrase that modifies the meaning of an adjective, verb, or other

adverbs, expressing manner, place, time, or degree (e.g. gently, here, now, very ). Someadverbs, for example sentence adverbs, can also be used to modify whole sentences)

An adverb clause is a group of words that function as an adverb. The clause can modifyverbs, adverbs, and adjectives by telling when, where, why, how, how much and underwhat condition. They begin with a subordinating conjunction (such as after, if, because

and although) and they contain a subject and a predicate.

Adverbs that tell us how often express the frequency of an action. They are usually placedbefore the main verb but after auxiliary verbs (such as be, have, may, & must). The onlyexception is when the main verb is "to be", in which case the adverb goes after the main

verb(today,yesterday, tomorrow)

A preposition of time helps to link the noun or pronoun with a time value. It functions asan indicator as to what point of time did an event occur.

ex: I wake up at 7 o'clock.We will see you on Tuesday.

I was born in 1419I often feel tired in the afternoon
