FW: How to spruce up your English

Proper use of adverbs can separate your speech or writing from others. Here are some examples:
1) Improving your English is easier than you think.
Better: Improving your English is incredibly easy.
2) Michelle speaks good English.
Better: Michelle speaks English perfectly/fluently.
3) I was surprised that the driver was not hurt in the accident.
Better: Miraculously the driver escaped the carnage unharmed.
Astonishingly the driver was able to escape injury.

Definition:

An adverb is a word used to modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. Adverbs are like the seasoning in sentences. They help describe how things appear and how things happen. They help a reader see action in his mind's eye and paint pictures with words. Adverbs help you control what others see when you speak or write. Many adverbs end in "ly," but don't think that all adverbs end in "ly" or that all words that end in "ly" are adverbs.

Adverbs are one of the necessary components to good writing. When used correctly, they can add a whole dimension to your work.
