Exercise Language: Adverbs

Adverbs are an essential part of Lithuanian grammar, they portray manner, time, degree, and frequency of action. They are flexible, as they can be used with verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. One interesting feature in Lithuanian is the flexibility with word order, which is often leveraged with adverbs.

To master the use of adverbs, several exercises are prescribed. First, a simple exercise involving sentence completion, where students fill in the blanks with suitable adverbs. This helps them recognize which adverb suits a particular context.

Second, students can engage in reordering exercises: given a sentence with a wrong order of words, they must rearrange them so that it reads correctly. This exercise is useful since Lithuanian uses adverbs to stress the importance of points in a sentence.

Another exercise is the transformation of adjectives into adverbs. This helps students to understand that many adverbs were born out of adjectives and it strengthens the connection among words. Finally, crafting sentences is encouraged as it allows a practical use of adverbs. These exercises, among others, bolster the understanding of adverbs in Lithuanian grammar.
