    1. INTRODUCTION TO ADVERB

    It has been customary to include the most disparate elements among adverb, frequently thosethat cant be put into any others classification parts of speech. Adverbs range , in meaning from wordshaving a strong lexical content (Those that describe the action of the verb, or those that indicate suchmeaning as a time and place) to those merely for emphasize. The range in functions are from closemodifier of a single word, prepositional phrase or clause to lose modifier of the entirely of the sentence.The range form from the words clearly marked as adverbs to those having the other form parts of speech. For these reasons, the dividing lines between classification of adverb and the other parts of speech are not clear cut.

    Some of adverbs merge with nouns or prepositions because of their forms; some merge withinterjections because of their ability to express emotion and to serve as a sentence modifier; somemerge with conjunctions because of their ability to perform a connecting functions.

    Adverb is restricted to become a word modifying or adding the meaning to out of a noun or

    pronoun.

    1.1. Position of Adverb.

    The positions of adverb can be distinguished into three kinds of declarative clauseor a sentence.

    The Positions of Adverb are:

    1.1.1. Initial Position.Commonly, the position of adverb in initial position is placed before subject.

    e.g.:-Sometimes , she comes late to attend the class.- Next , we are discussing about: The Effects of Television on Students behavior.- Well , the time is over.

    1.1.2. Medial Position. The position of adverb in medial position can be placed immediately beforeauxiliary verb or between two auxiliaries.e.g.:

    - I hardly ever have met her to go to her office on foot.- She usually can help me.- He could never have remembered that we have ever met each other before.

    Position of medial position can also be put immediately after verb, or in the case of nominal sentence, it is placed after auxiliary verb to be before complement. e.g.:

    - Mr. Phillips sometimes gives me some money.- Miss. Melinda soon found her mistake clear.- The weather is very hot in this summer.

    1.1.3. Final Position The position of adverb in final position is placed after intransitive verb or after object.e.g.:

    - Miss. Barbara comes late sometimes.

    - We completed our task yesterday. - The Army advanced toward the enemies slowly and silently.

    1.2. Characteristic of Adverb.The commonest characteristic of adverb is morphological, and majority of adverbhas derivational suffix -ly

    4/24

    There are two types of syntactic function characterizing adverbs :a. Adverbialb. Modifier of Adjective and Adverb.

    In both cases the adverb functions directly in an Adverb phrase of which is head or solerealization. Thus in the adjective phrase far more easily intelligible , the word intelligible ismodified by adverb phrase far more easily , easily is modified by the adverb phrase far more , and more is modified by adverb phrase far , thus, in this last case, an adverb phrasewith an adverb is as a sole realization.

    1.3. Formation of Adverb from Adjective.

    1.3.1. Most adverb of manner and some adverb of degree are formed from adding ly to thecorresponding adjective :

    e.g.:- slow - slowly- grave - gravely- immediate - immediately, etc.

    Spelling notes :

    A final y changes to be i :e.g.:

    - gay - gaily- happy - happily

    - pretty - prettily.A final e is retained :e.g.:

    - extreme - extremely- immediate - immediately- brave - bravely.

    Exceptional :e.g.:

    -True - truly,-Due - duly,-Whole - wholly, etc.

    Adjective ending in able/ible the final e and add y :e.g.:

    - sensible - sensibly- capable - capably- terrible - terribly- horrible - horribly

    Adjective ending in a vowel + l follow the usual rule and add ly :

    e.g.:- final - finally- beautiful - beautifully

    - actual - actually- personal - personally- mutual - mutually

    1.3.2. EXCEPTIONS :

  • 7/30/2019 The Subject Matters of Intermediate

    5/24

    a. The adverb of good is well.b. There are some adjectives by ending ly

    e.g.:- costly, cowardly, deadly, friendly, likely, lonely, lovely, lively, lowly, silly,

    Ugly, unlikely . They have no adverb form. So, to supply this deficiency we have touse a similar adverb of phrase as following bellow.- She a lways gives me a friendly smile.- Her voice is so lovely.- He gave a silly laugh.

    c. There are some words like : high, low, deep, near, far, fast, hard, early, late,much, little, straight, pretty, wrong, kindly , enough , etc. that can be used asAdjective and adverb

    As Adjective As Adverb.A high mountain. The air plane flew high .A near restaurant. Dont come near!

    A fast train. The train went fast. The work is hard. She worked hard .He drew a straight line. I went straight home.Miss. Titih is a pretty woman. The problem is pretty (very) difficult.She has enough money. She doesnt run fast enough.

    d. The forms : highly, lowly, nearly, lately, hardly, directly, wrongly, have narrowermeaning than their corresponding adjectives.

    Highly : is used only in an abstract sense.e.g.:

    - He was a highly placed. (He had an important person or occupation)- She spoke very highly of him. (She praised of him).Lowly : is an adjective, means humble.e.g.:

    - Mr. Abraham is a real lowly man.- Miss. Josephine has a lot of friends because she is a lowly girl.

    Deeply : is used chiefly in an emotional feeling or sense. Means very e.g.:

    - He was deeply offended with her words.- I am deeply sorry for saying that to you.

    Nearly : means the same as almost.e.g.:

    - Miss. Tamara is nearly ready to go out.- You are nearly ready to have lunch.

    Lately = recently.e.g.:

    - I have never seen you smile recently.- He has never made a call to her recently.

    Directly : is chiefly used for time.e.g.:

    The words of group 1 are: always, regularly (secara teratur), continually (terusmenerus), frequently (sering kali), occasionally (kadang-kadang), often, once, twice,periodically (kadang kala) ,repeatedly (berulang-ulang), usually, seldom, rarely(jarang), never, sometimes, etc.e.g.:To be put after Subject

    11/24

    But in interrogative sentence it goes after subject.e.g.:

    - Have you ever ridden a horse?- Does she often play tennis?- Will Andrew occasionally offers for help to you?

    When the words : seldom, rarely or never is put in initial position, it has anemphasis meaning, especially used in inversion of subject.e.g.:

    - I have never had such a deep feeling like this with any other girl before.(Never before have I had such a deep feeling like this with any other girl)

    The position of adverb of quantity:3.5.1. To be placed before adjective or adverb.

    3.6. Adverb of Affirming and Denying.e.g.:

    - He doesnt come yet. - Mr. Black doesnt have any capability to be a President. - I wasnt here last night and so she was.

    4. COMPARISON OF ADVERB.It is similar with adjective, adverb also has the degree of comparisons4.1. Comparatives and Superlatives Form.

    Adverb by having one syllable, we have to add with the suffix er for theircomparative and est for their superlative.e.g.:

  • 7/30/2019 The Subject Matters of Intermediate

    12/24

    Positive Comparative SuperlativeHard harder hardestHigh higher highestFast faster fastest

    But:Early earlier earliest, etc.

    Adverb by having two or more syllables, the comparative is formed by adding the wordmore before adverb, and superlative by adding the word most before the adverb. e.g.:

    Positive Comparative Superlative Quickly more quickly most quicklyCarefully more carefully most carefullyEasily more easily most easilyRapidly more rapidly most rapidlyClearly more clearly most clearly

    Adverb, has also irregular comparison, such like :e.g.:

    Positive Comparative Superlative Well better bestBadly worse worstLittle less leastFar farther farthest

    Further furthest, etc.

    4.2. Construction with Comparative

    Adverb as well as adjective, has the same pattern in superlative form, we may use theconstruction : as . as , for positive form of comparative adverb and not/so . as fornegative comparison. The conjunction than is used with this comparative. When we used thesame verb in both clauses, we normally express the second verb with the auxiliary verb only.e.g.:

    - Cindy cant swim as fast as Josephine can.- Butterfly can fly as high as dragonfly can.- He walked as slowly as a snail.

    In negative construction we use: as/so ..as e.g.:

    - Mr. Johnson doesnt snore as/so hard as you do.- She doesnt do anything so/as rapidly as anybody does.- Mrs. Claudia always comes to her office not so/as early as the other employees do.

    In comparative form we have to use than E.g.:

    - Martin runs faster than Andrew does.- She walked more slowly than I did.- Jacqueline speaks more clearly than me / than I do.- I can finish doing my job rapidly than you can.

    But, as/than can sometimes also be followed by a noun or pronoun only, and verb beingtalked about is not mentioned. This is possible only when there are the same verb and tensefor both clauses but they have different subject.e.g.:

    - Steve drove a car more carefully than Alexandra (did).- I came home earlier than my sister (did).- Miss. Annisa speaks louder than Mr. John (does).

    In informal English we may use pronoun as object (without the verb) after conjunction than,but in written, we had better use the subject (pronoun) and the verb.e.g.:

  • 7/30/2019 The Subject Matters of Intermediate

    13/24

    - Paul plays football as well as me. (as well as I do)- Martina works as hard as her. (she does)- Samantha can swim better than you. (you can)- I pay more for these shoes than him. ( than he does)- Mr. John Miller is older than me. (than I am)

    The + comparative .. the + comparative is also possible for adverb.

    e.g.:- The earlier you start the sooner you will finish.- The faster she runs the sooner she arrives in the destination.- The farther we travel the more money we will spend.

    4.3. Modification of Comparative and Superlative

    Modification of comparative and superlative forms of adverbs and adjectives may beintensified by :

    MUCHMuch means a lot, it can modify comparative or superlative adjectives and adverbs.e.g.:

    - Mr. Stewart works much more rapidly than the other workers.- Miss Titih Faridah becomes much prettier since she went on a diet.- He eats much less heartily (bernafsu) than he used to be.- After taking a rest for a moment my body feels much better now.- The sprinter can run much more quickly today than it was yesterday.

    Much means greatly, can be used with or without the word very and it is used with the

    participle : admired, amused, disliked, distressed, impressed, liked, shocked, struck, upset.e.g.:- I was very much impressed by his lovely paintings.- She was very much shocked when He treated her like that.- Maurice very much disliked the man treated her cruel.

    Ver y Much can also have meaning greatly , used in affirmative sentence (+), especiallyto be applied with the verb : blame, praise and thank. And also with the verbs dealingwith the feeling such like: admire, amuse, approve, dislike, distress, enjoy, impress, like,object, shock, surprise, etc.e.g.:

    - She thanked me very much for taking care of her only son.- Lydia admires Mr. Jason very much for his philanthropy sense to the poor.- She objected very much to the treatment he made.- I enjoyed very much skiing when I was in Switzerland last winter.- Amanda disliked very much eating seafood.- Jessica impressed very much by her friendly welco me when she visited Lauras house.

    5. CONDITIONAL SENTENCE.

    Conditional sentences have two parts, they are : if- clause and the Main clause.In the sentence If I have much money I will make a trip around the world. I have much money isthe If-Clause and I will make a trip around the world is the main clause.

    There are three types of conditional sentences. Each type has the different pair of tenses.

    5.1. TYPE : I. PROBABLE CONDITIONAL SENTENCEIf- Clause : Present Tense.Main Clause : Present Future Tense.

  • 7/30/2019 The Subject Matters of Intermediate

    14/24

    It is interchangeable, it doesnt matter which comes first, whether if -clause or the mainclause.Type- I, It implies that he action in the if-clause is quite probable. It may happen in theor future time. The action in the main clause will take the place if some certainconditions (that is in the if-clause) is fulfilled.e.g.:

    - If he takes a taxi to the station he will not miss the train.- If you take her home she will not go home on foot.- Mr. John will come to your party if you invite him, etc.

    OTHER VARIATIONS OF TYPE-I :

    Variation of the Main clause.1. If + Present + may/might to show possibility.

    e.g.:- If the day gets bright the students may/might be swimming outside.

    - if she has much money she may threat her friends to have lunch.

    2. If + Present + may (permission ), or can (ability).e.g.:

    - If your credit card is overd rawn you cant use it temporarily .- If your ID is valid you may propose a loan to a bank.

    3. If + Present + must/ should , to show command, advice or request.e.g.:

    - If you want to lose your weight you should eat more ice cream.- If we want to be fit we should do exercise regularly.

    Variation of If-clause:.

    1. If + Present Continuous used to show present or future action .e.g.:

    - If you are buying a film ticket you had better join in a line.- If you are looking for beautiful scenery you had better visit Bali.

    2. If + Present Perfect.e.g.:

    - If you have already finished lunch she will ask the waitress for the bill.- If you have never visited to the zoological garden I will take you there.

    5.2. TYPE : II. IMPROBABLE CONDITIONAL SENTENCEIf - Clause : Past Tense.Main Clause : Past Future Tense.

    Actually, there is no difference between Type-I and Type- II, because both of them refer tothe present or future time. The past tense form in the if-clause actually is not the true pasttense but that is a subjunctive (contrary to the fact or unreal).e.g.:

    - If someone tried to tease me I would spank of him. ( but I dont want) - If I knew your house I would come to see you. ( But I d ont come)

    - She would be glad to be yours If you were rich. ( I am not rich so)

    TYPE : II, is used :

  • 7/30/2019 The Subject Matters of Intermediate

    15/24

    1. To show the supposition is contrary to the facts.e.g.:

    - If I worked in a Bank I would be paid more. ( I dont work in a Bank) - If She were my girl I would be very happy. ( But she is not )

    2. When we dont expect the action in the If -clause take a place.e.g.:

    - If a thief came into my room I would scream loudly for help. (but I dont expecta thief comes into my room)

    - If the world war- III broke out There would be so many casualties. ( But we dontexpect the world war break out)

    POSSIBLE VARIATIONS OF TYPE-II : Variation of the Main clause :

    1. We use might or could instead of would.e.g.:

    - If he tried to come approach her again he would be success. (to show certainty )

    - If he tried to come approach her again he might be success (to show possible result)- If he tried to come approach her again he could be success (to show ability)

    2. If + Past tense :e.g.:

    - If anyone teased of her She got angry ( whenever anyone teased of her)

    Variation of If-clause:1. If + Past continuous

    e.g.:- If my motor cycle was working I would take you to the station.

    - If we were going by the sea We would see some dolphins.

    5.3. TYPE : III. IMPOSSIBLE CONDITIONAL SENTENCE.If - Clause : Past Perfect.Main Clause : Past Future Perfect.

    In this type, the time is in the past and the condition cannot be fulfilled, because the actionin the If- clause didnt happen. e.g.:

    - If Melissa had married 5 years ago she should have got 3 children.- I would have been a Lieutenant Colonel If had been accepted in Military Academy 20

    years ago.- If the dog had tried to bite me I would have thrown with a stone.

    We can also use the word Could/Might in the main clause instead of the word Would e.g.:

    - If she had told about her problem I could have helped her. (to show the ability).- If she had told about her problem I might have helped her. ( to show the possibility)

    We may use continuous form of the perfect conditional.e.g.:

    - If Mr. Andrew hadnt been there I would have been sitting in his chair.

    We can also use the perfect continuous tense for If-clause:e.g.:

    - If He had not been wearing a seat belt he would have been seriously injured.

  • 7/30/2019 The Subject Matters of Intermediate

    17/24

    Like a modal auxiliary verb, it has no infinitive form, or ing-form, and also has no s for thethird person. Ought has no past tense form, to make past tense we have to use Ought to have + past participle (v-3).e.g.:

    - We ought to be diligent to learn.- She ought to go to Bali next month.- We ought not (oughtnt) to leave here. - I ought to have picked up my sister in the airport this morning, but I forgot- Monalisa ought to have seen the dentist yesterday but she cancelled it till next week.

    - Ought you to be grateful to your parent? (Not: Do you ought to) - Ought she to come home on time? (Not: Does she ought to)

    - When she was young she was used to cycling around the tea plantation.

    Need (semi aux.): perlu, harus.Need has two forms, as modal auxiliary verb and as of an ordinary verb. But the use of need as ordinary verb is much common than modal auxiliary.

    e.g.:- You need some money to run his new business.- He need not go away from home. = He doesnt need to go away from home.

    - Need he go away from home? = Does he need to go away from home?- My hair neednt cutting. - I dont need to ceas e her away from my room.- She neednt be accompanied to go there.

    Dare : berani.Dare can be used in two ways : as verb or as a modal auxiliary verb (Semi auxiliary)If it is used as semi auxiliary verb, question and negative without using auxiliary verb ToDo, and has no s for the third person.e.g.:

    - Dare she tell you the truth?

    - She darent say whats going on in her mind. - Dare you go alone at night?- I darent inform you whats happened there.

    Dare used as ordinary verb, it has s form for the third person and also has an infinitiveform. and negative and interrogative with auxiliary verb To Do.e.g.:
