Adjectives and adverbs

1. The order of adjectives is as follows:

Opinion

Size/shape

Age

Colour

Origin

Material

Usage

Eg. She has a nice round old brown Italian wooden poker table

2. We form adverbs from adjectives by adding -ly at the end of an adjective

Eg. Nice - nicely: she is nice - she sings nicely

3. From adjectives ending with -ly we form adverbs by adding a phrase `in a …way'

Eg. Friendly - She welcomed us in a friendly way

4. We use adjectives in the function of adverbs with verbs of senses (look, smell, feel, taste, sound) eg. She is beautiful - She looks beautiful

5. Some adverbs are the same as adjectives : eg. Hard - this task is hard - he has to work hard (not hardly) zadanie jest ciężkie-on musi ciężko pracować (hardly = mało co!); fast

6. The adverb formed from the adjective good is well. Eg. She is good at painting - She paints well
