Adjectives & Adverbs
How to distinguish between adjectives and adverbs
Adjectives modify nouns (zelfstandig naamwoorden). To modify means to change in some way.
For example: This is a beautiful song.
‘beautiful’ tells us what kind of meal it is.
Adverbs modify verbs (werkwoorden). She sings beautifully.
‘beautifully’ tells something about how she sings.
Adjectives & Adverbs
Be sure to understand the differences between the following two examples:
"The dog smells carefully."
Here, carefully describes how the dog is smelling. We imagine him sniffing very
cautiously.
But: "The dog smells clean."
Here, clean describes the dog itself. It's not that he's smelling clean things or
something; it's that he's had a bath and does not stink.
