英语词性转换:形容词转化为副词的一般规则
形容词变副词通常是加ly,其变化有规律可循,请记住以下口诀:
一般直接加,―元(e)去e加,―辅(y)改i加,le结尾e改y。
分别举例如下:quick---quickly; true---truly; happy---happily; possible----possibly
具体规则如下:
1) .一般情况下直接加―ly,如:
quick---quickly; polite---politely; sad---sadly; immediate---immediately; recent---recently
2). 少数以e结尾的形容词,要去掉e再加-ly。如:
true-truly; due-duly
绝大多数辅音字母加e结尾的形容词直接加-ly。
如:polite-politely; wide-widely; wise-wisely; nice-nicely
3). 以―个y结尾的,且读音为 / i /, 先将―y改成―i,再加―ly,如:
happy---happily; heavy---heavily; angry---angrily; busy---busily
但是如果读音为 / ai /, 直接加ly,如:
dry-dryly; sly-slyly; shy---shyly
4).以ic 结尾的词,加ally,如:
economic---economically; basic---basically; scientific---scientifically; automatic---automatically; energetic---energetically
5).以辅音字母加le结尾时,去e加y,如:
simple---simply; considerable---considerably; terrible---terribly; gentle---gently; possible---possibly; probable---probably; incredible---incredibly
元音字母加le时加 ly,如:sole-solely。但是whole-wholly例外。
6). 以-ll结尾时,只须加 –y,如:
dull---dully; shrill---shrilly
需注意: 有些以ly结尾的词是形容词而非副词。如:
friendly people; motherly care; lovely dog; monthly exam; heavenly peace; a manly sport
