Which word in the sentence is an adverb? Owl hoots can be quite loud. A. Owl B. hoot C. quite D. loud
which do u think it is?
b
well an adverb has to describe something, hoot is a verb so try again
then I don't know
a?
well we can rule out both a and b because they don't describe a word or phrase that modifies or qualifies an adjective, verb, or other adverb or a word group, expressing a relation of place, time, circumstance, manner, cause, degree, etc
now that those two are ruled out and i gave you the definition of an adverb... why don't you take another stab at it
remember that it can DESCRIBE AN ADJECTIVE hint hint
I don't like to guess but is it D.loud
well you are on the right track b/c loud IS the adjective
however it isn't the adverb
so c
so... by process of elimination it is c..... yup
thx
no problem
