Adverbs in Portuguese are very similar to adverbs in English. They are adjetivos<\/em> (adjectives) that describe a verbo<\/em> (verb). Also, English adverbs generally end in -ly, while Portuguese adverbs usually end in -mente. For example:<\/p>\n

A Luana canta\u00a0bem<\/strong>. (Luana sings well.)<\/p>\n

O Jo\u00e3o provavelmente<\/strong>\u00a0est\u00e1 doente. (Jo\u00e3o is probably sick.)<\/p>\n

Other times, an adverb can be used when describing an adjective or another adverb. For example:<\/p>\n

A Diana dirige muito devagar<\/strong>. (Diana drives very slowly.)<\/p>\n

Here, muito<\/em> is an adverb describing another adverb, devagar<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Other common adverbs include hoje<\/em>, ontem<\/em>, cada<\/em>, ainda<\/em>, and j\u00e1<\/em> (today, yesterday, every, still\/yet, and already) that describe time. Aqui<\/em>, l\u00e1<\/em>, al\u00ed<\/em>, fora de<\/em>, abaixo<\/em>, and a\u00ed<\/em> (here, over there, there, outside, below, and there) describe place. These don’t have the typical -mente ending and it’s important to be familiar with the irregular forms of these adverbs.<\/p>\n
