Are those that tell us how something
happened, happens, etc.happen.Examples:

Portugues

2.2.1. Advérbios de lugar que
indicam direção vêm antes dos que indicamposição:
Are those that tell us when something happened , happens , etc. happen .
Examples :
next week / month / year / century ( in próxina week, next month / year / century
)
position :
3.2.1 . - Now is normally placed after the word to be, can be set prior to stress .
In other cases , as in Portuguese is :

3.2.2 . - Just used in affirmative sentences , is placed before the main verb or
between the auxiliary and the main verb in the Present Perfect :
The bus has just arrived . ( The bus just arrived / O bus arrived earlier. )
We have just moved into the new apartment . ( We just moved into the new

3.2.3 . - Soon normally goes to the end of the prayer , but may be placed before
the verb or between the auxiliary and the main :

gifts . )

The adverb STILL means yet or not (still not) . Gives the idea that the action is
continuous , unfinished . Can occur both in affirmative sentences as well as in
negative and interrogative . When it appears in affirmative sentences , the still is
placed after the auxiliary verb or between subject and verb ( with other verbs ) ,
ie, assume a mid position:

doing it or not .
( I have not washed the dishes . And I have not decided yet how to wash it or
not . )
Adverbs YET , ALREADY and has mean EVER . But what are the differences
between the three ?
- The adverb means YET still ( yet ) in negative sentences , and has the sense
already in interrogative sentences in present perfect . Their placement is
necessarily the end of the prayer ( end position) and indicates expectation or
search for information :
Is Sally here ? Not yet. ( Sally is already here ? Yet . )
The postman has not come yet. ( The postman did not come. )
She has already expresso the check . / Expresso She has the check already.

( a) Have you read this book already? It has just been published ! ( Have you
read this book ? He has just been published ! )
- The adverb means have EVER towards ever , ever , been used in
interrogative sentences , both direct ( will be after the subject ) and indirect ( will
be sandwiched between the helper and paticípio ) :
Have you ever Traveled abroad ? [ Do you ( ever ) have traveled abroad ? ]
Philip asked me if I had ever seen a rugby game . [ Philip asked me if I ( ever )
have attended a rugby match . ]

prontamente) first (primeiramente, antes de
tudo)
tonight (hoje à noite)

eventually (no final das contas, finalmente)
forever (para sempre)
immediately (imediatemente) then (então,

lately (ultimamente, recentemente)
tomorrow (amanhã) yesterday (ontem)
suddenly (de repente)
today (hoje) finally (finalmente)
now (agora) afterwards (mais tarde, em
seguida)
in September (em setembro) last
month (mês passado) finally (finalmente)

just (recentemente, há pouco = adv. tempo /
somente, exatamente = adv. modo)
next week/month/year/century (na próxina
semana, no próximo mês/ano/século)
Posição:
3.1. Se o tempo for definido
(today, yesterday, tonight, tomorrow) ou se estiver se
tratando de dias da semana, meses, etc. o
advérbio normalmente vai para o final da oração,
podendo também, algumas vezes, ser colocado no
começo. Sendo posicionados no início da oração (front
position), os advérbios não serão o foco principal da
mensagem:
I spoke to him last night. (Falei com ele ontem à noite.)
The goods willl arrive on Monday. (As mercadorias irão
chegar no domingo.)
Tomorrow I will talk to him. (Amanhã eu falarei com
ele.)
In February, we usually go to the beach (In February).
[Em fevereiro, nós normalmente vamos para a
praia (em fevereiro).]
3.2. Os demais advérbios de tempo, contudo, podem
aparecer em posições variáveis:
3.2.1. - Now é normalmente colocado depois do verbo
to be, podendo ser posto antes para enfatizar. Nos
demais casos, fica como no Português:
3.2.2. - Just, usado em orações afirmativas, é
colocado antes do verbo principal ou entre o verbo
auxiliar e o principal no Present Perfect:
We just finished the report. (Nós há pouco terminamos
o relatório.)
The bus has just arrived. (O ônibus acabou de chegar/O
ônibus chegou há pouco.)
We have just moved into the new apartment.
(Acabamos de nos mudar para o novo apartamento.)
3.2.3. - Soon normalmente vai para o final da oração,
podendo, porém, ser colocado antes do verboou entre
o auxiliar e o principal:
They are going to arrive soon. (Eles vão chegar logo.)
The children soon opened their presents. (As crianças
prontamente abriram os seus presentes.)
The doctor will soon be here. (O médico logo estará
aqui)
3.2.4. - Afterwards (later) e lately normalmente vão
para o final da oração, podendo também ser
colocados no início:
Henry has been very busy lately. (Henry tem estado
muito ocupado ultimamente.)
Lately it has rained a lot. (Ultimamente, tem chovido
bastante.)
I'll speak to you afterwards (later). (Falo com você
mais tarde.)
Afterwards (later) he said he was sorry. (Mais tarde,
ele se desculpou.)
Em orações negativas:
I still haven't done the dishes. And I still had not made
up my mind about doing it or not.
(Eu ainda não lavei a louça. E eu ainda não me decidi
quanto a lavá-la ou não.)
Em interrogativas: Is it still raining? (Ainda está
chovendo?)
Os advérbios YET, ALREADY e EVER significam já. Mas
quais as diferenças entre os três?
- O advérbio YET significa ainda (ainda
não) em orações negativas, e tem o sentido
de já em orações interrogativas no present perfect.
Sua colocação é, necessariamente, no final da
oração (end position)e indica expectativa ou busca de
informação:
Is Sally here? Not yet. (Sally já está aqui? Ainda não.)
The postman hasn't come yet. (O carteiro ainda não
veio.)
Is supper ready yet? (O jantar já está pronto?)
