The adverbs They are words that complement verbs, adjectives or even other adverbs. They are used to express place, quantity, time, mode, doubt, affirmation, etc. For example: I bought a lot. (Adverb of quantity)

Unlike the adjective (which must coincide in gender and number with the word it complements), the adverb is always invariable. For example: My daughter knows a lot. / My children know a lot. The adverb "much" (which in this case complements the verb "to know") does not vary, despite the fact that the gender and number of the noun (son / sons) is changed.

This invariance allows distinguishing the presence of an adverb from that of an adjective, since the adjective does vary. For example: Read quite of French literature. ("enough" is an adverb of quantity) / Read enough French literature books. ("quite a lot" is an adjective and accompanies the noun in number)

Types of adverbs

Adverbs indicate a circumstance associated with the action of the verb and that is why there are different types of adverbs: adverbs of time, place, manner, quantity, company, instrument, purpose, cause and belonging; and that they answer questions such as how ?, when ?, where ?, how much ?, with whom ?, with what ?, for what ?, why ?, from whom?

There is another category of adverbs that do not answer any particular question, but that add information and complete or qualify the meaning of the sentence. Such is the case of the adverbs of doubt, of desire (or wishful thinking), comparative, interrogative, exclamatory, affirmative and negative.
