Adverbs of comment
These types of adverbs provide an opinion on a situation:
Unfortunately
5.I don't believe a word you say. You are a terrible liar!
Late can be an adjective or an adverb that means after the correct time.
I havent studied a lot lately. Work has been busy for the past couple
weeks.
hard / hardly
Hard can be an adjective or an adverb and the adjective form has two
meanings!
This book is too hard for me. I cant read it. (hard = adjective = difficult)
We have a bad connection I can hardly hear you. (= I almost cant hear
you)
