Formation et placement des adverbes?: In French as in English, an adverb describes the action of a verb. It answers such questions as where, when, how, how long, or how often. Adverbs are invariable and may be used with almost all verbs. For example:  Edouard cuisine bien. ? Edouard cooks well. Joe-Bob mange beaucoup. ? Joe-Bob eats a lot. An adverb may also qualify an adjective or another adverb. Consider the sentence: Edouard cuisine très bien (Edouard cooks very well). Très qualifies bien and both describe the action of the verb cuisiner. common adverbs Following is a list of frequently used adverbs, categorized by type:  manner ? bien, well ? mal, badly ? vite, quickly time ? souvent, often ? quelquefois, sometimes ? toujours, always ? ? jamais, never ? t?t, early ? tard, late ? ? bient?t, soon ? aujourdhui, today ? hier, yesterday ? ? maintenant, now ? déjà, already ? demain, tomorrow place ? dedans, inside ? dehors, outside ? ici, here ? ? là, there ? partout, everywhere ? quelque part, somewhere quantity or degree ? beaucoup, a lot ? très, very ? trop, too much ? ? assez, enough ? peu, little, not much ? peut-être, maybe sequence ? dabord, at first ? puis, then, next ? alors, then, so ? ? donc, thus ? enfin, finally ? ? formation of regular adverbs A large number of French adverbs are derived from adjectives.
