ANTE TODO Adverbs are words that describe how, when, and where actions take place. They can modify verbs, adjectives, and even other adverbs. In previous lessons, you have already learned many Spanish adverbs, such as the ones below. bien nunca temprano mal hoy ayer muy siempre aquí
2
The most common adverbs are those which end in
–mente. These are equivalent to the English adverbs which end in -ly. fácilmente easily generalmente generally verdaderamente truly, really simplemente simply
3
fabuloso fabulosa -mente fabulosamente
To form adverbs which end in –mente, add –mente to the feminine form of the adjective. If the adjective does not have a special feminine form, just add –mente to the standard form. FEMININE ADJECTIVE FORM SUFFIX ADVERB seguro segura -mente seguramente fabuloso fabulosa -mente fabulosamente enorme -mente enormemente feliz -mente felizmente

¡ATENCIÓN! El médico nos habló simple y abiertamente.
When a sentence contains two or more adverbs in sequence, the suffix –mente is dropped from all but the last adverb. El médico nos habló simple y abiertamente. The doctor spoke to us simply and openly. Yo camino lenta y cuidadosamente. I walk slowly and carefully. Adjectives do not lose their accents when adding –mente. fácil fácilmente débil débilmente
5
Javier dibuja maravillosamente.
Adverbs that end in –mente generally follow the verb, while adverbs that modify an adjective or another adverb precede the word they modify. Javier dibuja maravillosamente. Javier draws wonderfully. Inés está casi siempre ocupada. Inés is almost always busy.
