Which part of speech is the underlined word? The dog jumped clear of the lawnmower. A. adjective B. noun C. preposition D. adverb

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

What's the underlined word? :P

OpenStudy (yinshy):

Clear

OpenStudy (giitter):

It would be an adjective because it describes something in this case, it says the dog jumped clear onto the lawnmower :D Glad I could help! PM me if you have any questions/concerns about my answer!

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

Kay :) Adjective; describing a noun Noun; person, place or thing Adverb; expressing time, place, cause and circumstance Preposition; Preceding a noun (relation to another word in the sentence) In this case, I definitely believe it to be Adverb because it represents time, place and circumstance. The place is away from the lawnmower

OpenStudy (jadeishere):

And no, it is not Adjective. Adjectives are things like; "red, stuffy, blue, large, small" etc..

OpenStudy (yinshy):

OpenStudy (jadeishere):
