	What is an Adverb?
		While some adverbs can be identified by their characteristic "ly" suffix, most of them must be identified by untangling the grammatical relationships within the sentence or clause as a whole.
		In this sentence the adverb "boldly" modifies the adjective "spoken."
		Some of the most common conjunctive adverbs are "also," "consequently," "finally," "furthermore," "hence," "however," "incidentally," "indeed," "instead," "likewise," "meanwhile," "nevertheless," "next," "nonetheless," "otherwise," "still," "then," "therefore," and "thus." A conjunctive adverb is not strong enough to join two independent clauses without the aid of a semicolon.

	Adverb
		In German, adverbs have the basic form of their corresponding adjectives and are not inflected (except for comparison in which case they are inflected like adjectives, too).
		An "adverb" is a type of word that is a member of the adverb part of speech class, while an "adverbial" is a syntactic function.
		Adverbs are considered a part of speech in traditional English grammar, which is derived from Latin grammar, and are still included as a part of speech in grammar taught in schools and used in dictionaries.

		An adverb is a part of speech that normally serves to modify verbs, adjectives, other adverbs, clauses, and sentences.
		In German, adverbs have the basic form of their correspondig adjectives and are not inflected (except for comparation).
