The position of adverbs in sentences
We can put adverbs in different positions in sentences. There are three main positions but also a lot of exceptions.In English we never put an adverb between the verb and the object.
We often play handball. - CORRECT | WRONG: We play often handball. |
The three main positions of adverbs in English sentences
1) Adverb at the beginning of a sentence
Unfortunately, we could not see Mount Snowdon.
2) Adverb in the middle of a sentence
The children often ride their bikes.
3) Adverb at the end of a sentence
Andy reads a comic every afternoon. More than one adverb at the end of a sentence
If there are more adverbs at the end of a sentence, the word order is normally:Manner - Place - Time
Peter sang the song happily in the bathroom yesterday evening.
