3. be” preceding adverbs
we have discussed about "be" before adjectives now we are studying about Adverb.
Usually Adverb is a combination of preposition and noun (e.g. at school, on a table; to church) but the adverb can be stand alone (e.g. church, table, and school) , keep in mind that a word may has various kinds of attributes or classes, such as “love” can be either as noun or verb. Deep discussion about adverb will be discussed later.
Again, keep in mind that “be” is used in a sentence because it doesn’t have any verb inside. If there is we can’t use be (e.g. keep in mind; “in mind” is an adverb and “keep” is a verb, so we can’t use “be”
Present tense
I am at the store.
He is on the motor cycle.
She is near the mall
It is Tuesday
We are in the house
You are next to the pool.
They are behind the door.
Past tense
I was at the store.
He was on the motor cycle.
She was near the mall.
It was Tuesday.
We were in the house.
You were next to the pool.
They were are behind the door.
Since i have given you example of negative sentence on previous discussion, so now, you can try it your self. And also for the interrogative. As a clue just simply add “not” after “be” for the negative and CHANGE the position between “subject” and “be” for the interrogative. Or see the formulas below.
The formulas are:
Positive: subject + be + adverb
Negative: subject + be + not + adverb
Interrogative: be + subject + adverb
