Adverbs of manner are usually formed from adjectives by adding –ly:
方式副詞通常是其形容詞后直接加-ly形成的:
bad > badly; quiet > quietly; recent > recently; sudden > suddenly
but there are sometimes changes in spelling:
但有的時候在拼寫上會有一些改變:
easy > easily; gentle > gently
If an adjective ends in –ly we use the phrase in a …. way to express manner:
若一個形容詞以-ly結尾,我們用短語in a ... way來表示“用……方式”:
Silly > He behaved in a silly way.
Friendly > She spoke in a friendly way.
A few adverbs of manner have the same form as the adjective:
一些方式副詞與形容詞的形式一樣:
They all worked hard.
She usually arrives late.
I hate driving fast.
Note: hardly and lately have different meanings:
注意:hardly 和 lately 有不同的含義:
He could hardly walk = It was difficult for him to walk.
I haven’t seen John lately = I haven’t seen John recently.
We often use phrases with like as adverbials of manner:
我們經常用like短語作為方式狀語:
She slept like a baby.
He ran like a rabbit.
Adverbs of manner and link verbs
We very often use adverbials with like after link verbs:
我們經常在系動詞后,用like短語作狀語:
Her hands felt like ice.
It smells like fresh bread.
But we do not use other adverbials of manner after link verbs. We use adjectives instead:
但是我們不用其他方式狀語與系動詞連用,而以形容詞代替:
They looked happily happy.
That bread smells deliciously delicious.?
