Thank you for clarifying the grey area between adjectives and adverbs, I’ll need to practice to get this one right. After watching this lesson and those on ‘prepositions’, I thought I could definitely tick off the 2 ‘prepositions’ lessons from my revision list. However, after taking a sneaky peek online I’ve learned that some ‘preparations’ become adverbs. Could you make a follow up lesson from this one to teach how ‘prepositions’ turn into adverbs? Thank you.
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 Thank you for taking the time to respond and offer the lesson.I’ll keep an eye and looking forward to delving into the lesson! (OOE team- “looking forward to delving into or delve into”, which one is correct? Thanks)
Stephanie says we use adv. to describe a sentence and adj. to describe a noun. But in this example, 'It's unlikely that we'll be there on time." I think 'unlikely' here describes 'we'll be there on time', which is a sentence. Then why it's an adj.?
Hi Jorge, 'unlikely' can be used to describe nouns and ideas involving nouns, so it is an adjective. For example: 'It seems unlikely that they will win the game'. We can use adverbs like 'quite', 'very', 'highly', and 'extremely' to create a stronger meaning: 'It's highly unlikely that she'll pass the class with these marks'. Hope this helps you!
Unlikely can be an adjective as it can be an adverbe. We say that unlikely is an adjective when we can replace it by improbable ( which is an adjective), but when we can replace it by unprobably (which is an adverbe) we say that unlikely is an adverbe.
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 Hello. Sorry but I still have doubts. You said before that adverbs describes a situation, and I think in this case 'unlikely' is describing a situation because they are going to be late; and, 'being late' is an action, isn't it? 🤔🤯
Thanks alot for the lessons.I have been watching videos for the last 1 week.not only the one topic .every topic is good to watch and understanding more.I have been doing alot of mistakes in grammar and making sentence formation.so, these lessons are helping me alot to speak in correct way.
You all are doing very very well. The thing my daughter didn't understand in years she understood it in seconds after watching your video. Even I am really impressed 😊.You all the doing very good job. Keep it up and thanks a lot
Stop saying that they are good teachers, say that you are here ready to learn but, in school you don't want to learn. This changes the mind set which can change who you are so please, pay attention to your teacher.
Not everyone? Some people have really bad teachers honestly and if you ask me, I'm here to get a farther insight on adverbs because I have a learning gap caused by lockdown.
The 5 sentences about Adverb : 1.He is terribly sad. 2.I hate you so much. 3.You are going to the park. 4.his birthday was yesterday. 5.Adam ran very quickly. Pls is my sentences is wrong pls tell me in the Reply box. What do adverbs do in English ? Ans: Adverbs can modify a verb, an adjective, another adverb, or an entire clause or sentence.
I feel you explain english topics which are a bit complicated in a very easy way and I couldn't remember it in my elementary school 3rd grade I understood how Mr.Daniel and Ms.Stephanie explained. A Big thank you to Oxford Online english for helping me in my English
Hi Ayjan, good question. Where is the adverb of place in your sentence? You've only used an adverb of time: 'tomorrow'. We always want to use adverbs of place, like 'around', 'nearby', 'outside', etc. before adverbs of time like 'yesterday', 'later', 'now', 'tomorrow', etc. For example: 'I will not be outside later,' or, 'Will they live nearby next year?'. Hopefully that helps you!
Best teaching done by both of you. You both teach very good. I understood the adverbs.keep it up. Supporting you from india 🇮🇳 and you got a new subscriber. Thank you

Mom told me to quietly sweep the room cleanly because kids are sleeping on the bed, and she also told me to wipe the mirror so that we can see the reflection clearly.
Please, I need explanation for using (just as - just when) as a conjunction between two events one of them interrupted the other, or they was happening in the same time. (Is it followed by past simple or past continuous
Nice, Hamid. Here are some tips: 1) 'I have eaten my dinner slowly,' not, 'I have eaten slowly My dine.' 2) '...quickly because I was the only one there,' is a bit better than, '...quickly because just me was there.' Hope this helps you!
11:18 "Trust your instincts" All right, that well certainly will go to a non-native speaker... no, wait a minute, something is not right. Anyway, thanks from Brazil for the great video!
True, it might not work every time! However, most ESL learners have good instincts about what does(n't) sound right by the time they reach an intermediate level.
Green box is "heavier" to lift than the red one. what will be the word "heavier" here? Adverb? As the word heavier adds to the meaning of the verb lift.
Good question, Kirill! Both are possible, but "I usually get up..." is more common. You could put the adverb first ("Usually, I get up...") if you want to emphasise it.
Please I have a question. What grammatical function is Before leaving my office in this sentence Before leaving my office,he introduced himself as Aboki,the manager of Abuja Cooperative shop.
As informative these videos are about grammar, aside from helping one pass a grammar test, I can't really understand why, anyone who writes/speaks English well, would need to know what grammatical technical names are; or even why one would need to explain _how_ grammar is used; so long as one is intuitively using it correctly.
you said adverb can describing many many different things..........if so then what is the difference between adverb and adjective??? because if so then it is like adjective........
Hi, in the example" He's quickly becoming one of our most valueble team members" is it possible to put the adverb "quickly" at the end of the sentence since it's an adverb of time? Furthermore at the end of the video you said that the adverbs can be placed in more position, does that mean for all the adverbs or just for the adverbs of time/place? Thanks for the video!
Glad you enjoyed the lesson, Wang. It's common in that particular phrase to keep 'quickly' before the verb 'becoming'. The other way isn't incorrect, it's just not as common. Also, at the end they are talking about most adverbs, not only those of time and place.
Hello, thanks for this awesome video! I just have one question: In the sentence 'It's likely that we'll be there on time.' what does the adjective 'likely' describe? It should be a noun, but I'm confused. Thank you once again.
Hi Guilherme. This can be confusing. Here, 'likely' describes 'it' which basically means 'the situation'. Another way to think of the sentence: 'The situation is likely that we'll be there on time...'. Hope this helps you!
an adverb can describe another adverb??? in the sentence you said very slowly......so two adverbs........so we can use others two adverbs like that in all situation??? or only some situation like very slowly.....
Almost! Remember, 'hard' is the adverb here, not hardly. You can watch our new lesson on adverbs and adjectives for more information on this topic: www.oxfordonlineenglish.com/5-levels-english-grammar-adjectives-adverbs.

a test to distinguish adverb and adjective is to ask question about this word. If you get a how-question, then this word is an adverb

It’s unlikely that we’ll be there on time. In this sentence ‘unlikely’ is not an adjective but it is an adverb. Please could you clarify.
