LA POSIZIONE DELL'AVVERBIO
1 - Per quanto riguarda la posizione dell'avverbio, generalmente si mette dopo il verbo:
ESEMPIO: In questo letto dormo raramente.
2 - Prima di un aggettivo o di un altro avverbio:
ESEMPI:
Tua zia è veramente noiosa.
Ho mangiato molto bene.
3 - Quando il verbo è di forma composta, molti avverbi possono essere messi sia tra l'ausiliare e il participio, sia dopo il participio:
ESEMPI:
L'aereo è sicuramente decollato. (tra ausiliare e participio)
L'aereo è decollato sicuramente. (dopo il participio)
4 - l'avverbio di negazione non, e le particelle avverbiali ci, vi, e ne si collocano sempre prima del verbo:
ESEMPI:
Il serpente non è velenoso.
La festa non è questa.
Ci vado adesso.
Vi è una gran folla,
Ne è valsa la pena
5 - Quando l'avverbio si riferisce a un elemento particolare della frase, si riferisce a tutta la frase nel suo complesso, la sua collocazione può avvenire in qualsiasi punto della frase, dalla quale però risulta separato mediante la virgola:
ESEMPI:
Francamente, non sono convinta dell'offerta.
Non sono convinta, francamente, dell'offerta.
Non sono convinta dell'offerta, francamente.
THE POSITION OF THE ADVERB
1 - Regarding the position of the adverb, it is generally placed after the verb:
EXAMPLE: In this bed I rarely sleep.
2 - Before an adjective or other adverb:
EXAMPLE:
Your aunt is really boring.
I ate very well.
3 - When the verb is compound form, many adverbs can be put either between the auxiliary and the participle or after the participle:
EXAMPLES:
The plane has definitely taken off. (between auxiliary and participle)
The plane definitely took off. (after the participle)
4 - the negation adverb not, and the adverbial particles ci, vi, and ne are always placed before the verb:
EXAMPLES:
The snake is not poisonous.
The party is not this.
I am going there now.
There is a big crowd,
It was worth it
5 - When the adverb refers to a particular element of the sentence, it refers to the whole sentence as a whole, its placement can be anywhere in the sentence, from which, however, it is separated by a comma:
EXAMPLES:
Frankly, I am not convinced by the offer.
I am not convinced, frankly, about the offer.
I am not convinced of the offer, frankly.
