== Introduction ==
=== The Role of Adverbs of Manner ===
Welcome to the "Complete 0 to A1 Javanese Course"! In this lesson, we will dive into the fascinating world of Javanese adverbs, specifically focusing on adverbs of manner. Adverbs of manner are an essential part of the Javanese language as they allow us to describe how actions are performed. Whether it's running quickly, speaking softly, or eating slowly, adverbs of manner provide us with the necessary tools to express these nuances in Javanese.
 
Adverbs of manner in Javanese answer the question of '''how''' something is done. They modify verbs and typically describe the quality of the action. For instance, when you say ''"She dances beautifully,"'' the word ''"beautifully"'' tells us more about '''how''' she dances. In Javanese, this concept is expressed through various adverbs that convey similar meanings.
 
=== How to Form Adverbs of Manner in Javanese ===
 
Most Javanese adverbs of manner are derived from adjectives by adding specific suffixes or modifying the adjective form. Understanding the transformation from adjective to adverb will help you create your own adverbs easily.
 
==== Common Suffixes ====
 
1. '''-ke''': Often used to create adverbs in Javanese.
 
2. '''-an''': This can also denote manner in some contexts.


Throughout this lesson, we will explore the various forms and usage of adverbs of manner in the Javanese language. We will provide numerous examples and exercises to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the topic. Additionally, we will delve into the cultural aspects of adverbs of manner, exploring any regional variations and historical reasons for these differences. So, let's get started and unlock the magic of adverbs of manner in Javanese!
Let’s take a closer look at how we can utilize these suffixes to form our adverbs.


== Adverbs of Manner in Javanese ==
=== Examples of Adverbs of Manner ===
Adverbs of manner in Javanese are used to describe how an action is performed. These adverbs provide additional information about the verb, giving us insights into the manner or way in which an action takes place. Adverbs of manner can be used with a wide range of verbs, allowing us to express different degrees and styles of actions.


To form an adverb of manner in Javanese, we typically add the suffix "-e" to the root of the adjective. This suffix changes depending on the final vowel of the root adjective. Let's explore some examples to better understand this concept:
Below, we outline some common Javanese adjectives and their corresponding adverbs of manner, along with their English translations. Each example illustrates how the action is performed.

As you can see from the examples above, the suffix "-e" is added to the root adjective to form the adverb of manner. It's important to note that there might be variations or exceptions to this rule, which we will explore further in the following sections.
=== Practical Usage of Adverbs of Manner ===
 
Now that we've seen some examples, let’s explore how to effectively use them in sentences. Here are some structures you can follow:
 
1. '''Subject + Verb + Adverb of Manner'''
 
* ''Rina nari cepet.'' (Rina dances quickly.)
 
2. '''Subject + Verb + Adverb of Manner + Object'''
 
* ''Budi maca buku kanthi tenang.'' (Budi reads the book calmly.)
 
In these structures, you can see how adverbs of manner enhance the meaning of the verb, giving the listener a clearer understanding of the action.

== Usage of Adverbs of Manner ==
| c. begja | 3. slowly |
Adverbs of manner in Javanese can be used in various ways to provide detailed descriptions of actions. Let's take a look at some common usage patterns:


=== 1. Verb + Adverb of Manner ===
| d. tenang | 4. calmly |
One of the most straightforward ways to use adverbs of manner is by placing them directly after the verb. This structure allows us to express how an action is performed. Let's see some examples:


* Nyedhaki pepesane cepete. (She cuts the vegetables quickly.)
''Answers:''
* Mangan pitik-e pelane. (He eats the chicken slowly.)
* Nulis surat-e hatine. (They write the letter carefully.)


In the examples above, the adverbs of manner "cepete" (quickly), "pelane" (slowly), and "hatine" (carefully) are placed immediately after the verbs "nyedhaki" (cut), "mangan" (eat), and "nulis" (write), respectively. This structure allows us to specify the manner in which these actions are performed.
a-3, b-1, c-2, d-4


=== 2. Verb + Object + Adverb of Manner ===
==== Exercise 3: Sentence Creation ====
In some cases, we may want to describe the manner in which an action is performed on a specific object. To achieve this, we can use the structure of verb + object + adverb of manner. Let's see some examples:


* Nekokake kertas-e pelane. (She folds the paper slowly.)
Create sentences using the following adverbs of manner:
* Nggambar wong-e hatine. (He draws the person carefully.)
* Ndekake tempe-e cepete. (They fry the tempeh quickly.)


In the examples above, the adverbs of manner "pelane" (slowly), "hatine" (carefully), and "cepete" (quickly) are placed after the objects "kertas-e" (the paper), "wong-e" (the person), and "tempe-e" (the tempeh), respectively. This structure allows us to specify the manner in which these actions are performed on specific objects.
1. lincah (nimbly)


=== 3. Adverb of Manner + Verb ===
2. sabar (patiently)
Another way to use adverbs of manner is by placing them before the verb. This structure emphasizes the manner in which the action is performed. Let's see some examples:


* Cepete nyedhaki pepesane. (Quickly, she cuts the vegetables.)
3. pinter (skillfully)
* Pelane mangan pitik-e. (Slowly, he eats the chicken.)
* Hatine nulis surat-e. (Carefully, they write the letter.)


In the examples above, the adverbs of manner "cepete" (quickly), "pelane" (slowly), and "hatine" (carefully) are placed before the verbs "nyedhaki" (cut), "mangan" (eat), and "nulis" (write), respectively. This structure places emphasis on the manner of the action.
