THE ADVERB. 



This part of speech stands in the same i-elation to the verb as the adjec- 

 tive or "adnominal" stands to the noun ; it qualifies and specializes the act 

 expressed by the verb in regard to various categories, as degree, quantitv, 

 space, time, or quality (modality). Its natural position in the sentence is 

 before the verb, just as that of the adjective, when used attributively, is 

 before the noun.
