Anything you need And we can make

An adverb is a word...

of them)
That modifies a verb,
(Sometimes a verb! and Sometimes)
It modifies an
adjective,
Or else another adverb.
And so you see that it's positively, very, very,
necessary.

needs
painting. How are you going to paint it? That's where the
adverb comes in. We can
also give you a special intensifier
so you can paint it very neatly or rather sloppily.
Hi. Suppose you're going nut-gathering. Your buddy wants
to know where and when.
Use an adverb and tell him.

Use it with an adjective, it
says much more,
Anything described can be described some more.
Anything you'd ever need
is in the store,
And so you choose very carefully
Every word you use.
Use it
with a verb it tells us how you did.
Where it happened, where you're going, where you've been.
Use it with another adverb at the end,
and even more...
How, where, or when,
condition or reason,
These questions are answered
When you use an adverb.
Come and get it!
