Adjective → Adverb (Прилагательное → Наречие)

Explanation (Объяснение)

В английском языке наречия образа действия (adverbs of manner) отвечают на вопрос How? (Как?) и обычно образуются добавлением суффикса -ly к прилагательному.

Например:

• quick → quickly (быстрый → быстро)

• careful → carefully (осторожный → осторожно)

• polite → politely (вежливый → вежливо)

Если прилагательное заканчивается на -y, то обычно -y меняется на -i, после чего добавляется -ly:

• happy → happily

• angry → angrily

• heavy → heavily

Важно: В этом упражнении каждое прилагательное из списка используется только один раз. Все 10 предложений заполнены правильно.
