== Basics of Adverbs ==

=== What are Adverbs? ===
|}


Adverbs are words that modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. They provide additional information about how, when, where, why, or to what extent an action is performed or a quality is expressed. Adverbs can be single words, phrases, or even entire clauses. They play a crucial role in adding depth and precision to our language.
== Adverbs of Time ==


In Marathi, adverbs can be broadly categorized into several types based on their function:
Adverbs of time indicate when an action takes place. They help us understand the timing of events.


* **Manner adverbs**: These adverbs describe how an action is performed. For example, धीरे (dhīre) meaning "slowly," तत्परता (tatparatā) meaning "eagerly," and चंचळपणा (chaṅchaḷpaṇā) meaning "restlessly."
=== Examples of Adverbs of Time ===


* **Time adverbs**: These adverbs indicate when an action takes place. For example, आता (ātā) meaning "now," वेळेस (vēḷēsa) meaning "sometimes," and आठवणीत (āṭhavaṇīta) meaning "occasionally."
{| class="wikitable"


* **Place adverbs**: These adverbs specify where an action happens. For example, इथे (ithe) meaning "here," तिथे (tithē) meaning "there," and जवळ (javaḷ) meaning "near."

* **Degree adverbs**: These adverbs indicate the intensity or degree of an action or quality. For example, खूप (khūp) meaning "very," कमी (kamī) meaning "less," and अत्यंत (atyanta) meaning "extremely."
|-


* **Frequency adverbs**: These adverbs express how often an action occurs. For example, सध्या (sadhya) meaning "currently," दररोज (dararōja) meaning "every day," and कधीकधी (kadhīkadhī) meaning "sometimes."
| आज || āj || today


=== Adverb Formation ===
|-


In Marathi, adverbs can be formed in several ways:
| उद्या || udyā || tomorrow


1. **Using adjectival forms**: Many adverbs can be formed by adding the suffix -ता (-tā) to the base form of an adjective. For example, जास्त (jāsta) meaning "more" can become जास्तता (jāstatā) meaning "more," and कमी (kamī) meaning "less" can become कमीता (kamītā) meaning "less."
|-


2. **Using adverbs derived from nouns**: Some adverbs are derived from nouns by adding the suffix -वर (-vara). For example, जवळ (javaḷ) meaning "near" is derived from the noun जवळ (javaḷ) meaning "neighborhood."
| काल || kāl || yesterday


3. **Using adverbs derived from verbs**: Adverbs can also be formed by adding the suffix -ते (-tē) to the base form of a verb. For example, बघा (baghā) meaning "to see" can become बघाते (baghātē) meaning "seeing."
|-


4. **Using compound adverbs**: Compound adverbs are formed by combining two or more words. For example, तात्पुरते (tātpurate) meaning "completely" is a compound adverb formed from तात (tāta) meaning "that" and पुरते (puratē) meaning "complete."
| नेहमी || nehmi || always


=== Placement of Adverbs ===
|-


In Marathi, adverbs can be placed at different positions within a sentence, depending on the emphasis and clarity desired. Generally, adverbs are placed immediately before the word they modify. However, adverbs of time and frequency often appear at the beginning or end of a sentence for emphasis. Let's look at some examples:
| कधी || kadhī || sometimes


* तात्पुरते तुम्ही काम करा. (Tātpurate tumhī kām karā.) - "Do the work completely."
|}
* आता तुम्ही जाऊ शकता. (Ātā tumhī jāū śaktā.) - "Now you can go."
* तुम्ही तत्परतेने केलं. (Tumhī tatparatēnē kēlaṁ.) - "You did it eagerly."


It is important to note that the placement of adverbs can vary depending on the context and the speaker's style of speech. Practice and exposure to the language will help you develop a natural sense of where to place adverbs in your sentences.
== Adverbs of Place ==


== Adverbs of Manner ==
Adverbs of place describe where an action occurs. They provide context for the location of the action.


Adverbs of manner describe how an action is performed. They provide information about the way in which an action takes place. In Marathi, adverbs of manner are formed by adding the suffix -ण्याने (-ṇyānē) to the base form of a verb. Let's look at some examples:
=== Examples of Adverbs of Place ===
