Position of the Adverbs of Manner and Opinion

 

Part 1: Adverbs of Manner

 

Adverbs of manner describe how an action is performed.
They usually end in -ly, but not always.
They answer the question: How?

 

🏗️ Position Rules for Adverbs of Manner:

 

Rule 1: They usually go after the main verb or after the object (if there is one)

  • Verb only:
    He speaks clearly.
    She drives slowly.
  • Verb + object:
    She paints the wall carefully.
    They answered the questions politely.

 

Rule 2: With intransitive verbs (no object), place the adverb directly after the verb

Examples:

  • He runs fast.
  • They arrived early.
  • She smiles sweetly.

 

Rule 4: Use adverbs of manner at the beginning or end of the sentence for emphasis (less common)

  • At the beginning (formal/literary style):
    Slowly, she walked away.

  • At the end (most natural position):
    ➤ She walked away slowly.


Part 2: Adverbs of Opinion

 

Definition: The adverbs of opinion express what the speaker thinks about a situation, action, or fact. They reflect attitudes, beliefs, or judgments, and are used to show certainty, doubt, evaluation, or perspective. (e.g., clearly, obviously, unfortunately).

 

Position Rules:

 

Rule 1: Often placed at the beginning of a sentence:

·       Obviously, he made a mistake.

·       Fortunately, no one was hurt.

 

Rule 2: They can also go before the main verb (except be) or after the auxiliary/modal:

·       She clearly forgot the meeting.

·       He has obviously lied.

·       They will probably come.

 

Rule 3: With the verb to be, they come after the verb:

·       He is obviously tired.

·       They are definitely right.
