Adverbs in Esperanto
In this lesson, we'll talk about the adverb. An adverb can be compared to an adjective but instead of describing a noun it describes a verb. In other words, it tells "how" something happens.
An example: "The little boy runs quickly". Here we see "little" as an adjective, saying something about "boy", but we also see the word "quickly" saying something about the verb "runs".
How does the boy run? The boys runs quickly. "quickly" is called the adverb in this sentence because it tells us something about a verb.
