This quiz takes a further look at adverbs. Adverbs are words that change adjectives and other adverbs, as well as verbs. You will know from the first adverb quiz - and from school - that adverbs can change verbs. But did you know they can also modify other types of words such as adjectives or other adverbs? Many words which we use every day work in this way.
