When an adverb modifies a verb, there are usually 3 possible positions within the sentence or clause:
|
FRONT |
before subject |
NOW I will read a book |
|
MID |
between subject + verb |
I often read books. |
|
END |
after verb/object |
I read books carefully. |
When an adverb modifies an adjective or another adverb, it usually goes in front of the word that it modifies, for example:
|
|
adverb |
adjective |
|
|

really |
dirty |
look. |
|
