Degrees of Comparison

По структуре наречия делятся на:

2) Производные от прилагательных и существительных: quickly easily daily	быстро легко ежедневно
3) сложные: somewhere outside somewhat	где-то снаружи отчасти
4) составные: not at all in rain at last	ничуть напрасно наконец

Некоторые наречия имеют две формы, которые различаются по значению:

а) совпадающую с формой соответствующего прилагательного

b) форму с суффиксом – ly

Например: near – близкий, близко

daily – ежедневно, ежедневный

close closely	близко тщательно	wide widely	широко повсеместно
near nearly	близко почти	sure surely	действительно конечно, непременно
late lately	поздно последнее время	free freely	бесплатно свободно, вольно
hard hardly	упорно едва	last lastly	последний, позже всех в конце концов
high highly	высоко в высшей степени	direct directly	прямо, напрямую немедленно

Классификация наречий:

	Наречия определенного времени: обычно ставятся в начале или в конце предложения Например: I shall write him a letter tomorrow.	now, today, tomorrow, yesterday, tonight, then, before
	Наречия неопределенного времени: обычно ставятся перед смысловым глаголом, или после вспомогательного глагола, если сказуемое состоит из нескольких слов. Например: Writing the address in English usually presents some difficulties for Russian people. When we want to send a letter we must always address the envelope.	always, never, usually, sometimes, often
	Наречия образа действия: употребляются непосредственно после глагола, когда глагол непереходной (после него не следует дополнение). Например: He works hard.

Он наотрез отказался ехать ни свет ни заря	fast, slowly, hard tight, well, calmly, quickly, brightly, easily
	Наречия меры и степени. Большинство наречий меры и степени стоит перед определяемым словом.
