Introduction
Adverbs (words that indicate in what manner something was done) often end with -ly, e.g. slowly, neatly, surreptitiously. However, the ending -ly is not an infallible guide to spotting adverbs. Use each of the words below in a sentence, and say what part of speech it is (e.g. adverb, adjective, noun etc.).
The words in this puzzle are taken randomly from a list of 141 common words.
1. Simply. 2. Motherly. 3. Sisterly. 4. Duly. 5. Gaily. 6. Primly. 7. Early. 8. Yearly. 9. Kingly. 10. Reply. 11. Timely. 12. Squarely.
