The Position of the Adverb in a Sentence

An adverb of frequency goes before a main verb (except with To Be).

Subject + adverb + main verb

I always remember to do my homework.

He normally gets good marks in exams.

An adverb of frequency goes after the

verb To Be.

Subject + to be + adverb

They are never pleased to see me.

She isn't usually bad tempered.

When we use an auxiliary verb (have, will, must, might, could, would, can, etc.), the adverb is placed between the auxiliary and the main verb. This is also true for to be.

Subject + auxiliary + adverb + main verb

She can sometimes beat me in a race.

I would hardly ever be unkind to someone.

We can also use the following adverbs at the start of a sentence: Usually, normally, often, frequently, sometimes, occasionally

Occasionally, I like to eat Thai food.

BUT we cannot use the following at the beginning of a sentence:

Always, seldom, rarely, hardly, ever, never.

We use hardly ever and never with positive, not negative verbs:

She hardly ever comes to my parties. They never say 'thank you'.

We use ever in questions and negative statements:

Have you ever been to New Zealand? I haven't ever been to Switzerland. (The same as 'I have never been Switzerland').

We can also use the following expressions when we want to be more specific about the frequency:

- every day - once a month - twice a year - four times a day - every other week

I always go to school by bus. Siempre voy a la escuela en autobús. I usually get up at 7. Usualmente me despierto a las 7. I often / frequently watch TV in the evening. Frecuentemente miro TV por la noche. I sometimes have lunch in a restaurant.

Ben’s day.

When I woke up this morning, I found my dog, Fox, waiting for me. He wanted me to take

him for a walk. I was too hungry, so first I had breakfast. I had a glass of milk and a piece of

toast. Then I washed my teeth and put on a track-suit and a heavy coat, because it was

really cold outside. Fox was already impatient. We both went out, and walked to the park

near home. Haran and jumped, and pursued some passers-by. He also destroyed some

pieces of furniture somebody left on the road. I sat on a bench all the time, wishing I could

be inside my warm bed. When my hands were frozen, I decided it was time to go back home.

Fox didn’t want to, but I pulled hard and I managed to take him back. When we arrived at

the front door, I realized I didn’t have my keys with me, so we stayed out in the cold for more

than an hour! Fox was happy, but I was late for work!

Comparatives and Superlatives

Los comparativos sirven justamente para comparar una misma cualidad o característica en

dos sustantivos.

Para formar el comparativo, se deben seguir las siguientes reglas:

Se agrega al adjetivo "er" o "r", si ya termina en "e". nice- nicer small - smaller

Si la el adjetivo termina en consonante vocal + consonante, se duplica la última

consonante. big – bigger, fat- fatter

Si termina en "y" se cambia por "ier". happy – happier

Cuando el adjetivo tiene más de tres sílabas, el comparativo se forma usando la palabra

"more" antes del adjetivo.

Expensive - more expensive - careful - more careful

Para comparar dos objetos en una oración, se agrega "than".

This shirt is smaller than than shirt. - Esta camisa es más chica que aquella camisa.

Superlatives

Como vimos, en la frase "a small shirt" (una camisa chica), small es un adjetivo. Si todas

las demás camisas son grandes, se puede comparar usando el superlativo "the smallest

shirt" (la camisa más chica). Siempre se agrega "the" adelante.

Para formar el superlativo, se deben seguir las siguientes reglas:

Se agrega al adjetivo "est" o "st", si ya termina en "e". small - the smallest

Si la palabra termina en vocal + consonante, se duplica la consonante.

big - the biggest Si termina en "y" se cambia por "iest". happy - the happiest

Cuando el adjetivo tiene más de tres sílabas, el superlativo se forma usando las palabras

"the most" adelante.

Expensive - the most expensive - careful - the most careful
