Adjectives vs Adverbs
Adjectives adalah kata kata yang mendeskripsikan noun atau pronoun. Adjective biasanya jatuh
sebelum kata yang di deskripsikan (That is a cute puppy) ataupun kadang jatuh setelah ata yang
didiskripsikan (That puppy is cute).

Adverbs adalah kebalikan dari Adjective, yang memodifikasi seuanya kecuali noun dan pronoun.
Biasanya adverb memodifikasi adjectives, verbs, and other adverbs. Adverb ini biasanya merupakan
sebuah jawaban dari pertanyaan how, when, or where. Dalam kisah perjalananya, adverb dari when
dan where adalah yang paling mudah di pelajari sedang adverb how merupakan adverb yang perlu
pengkajian lebih lanjut.

Contoh ; He speaks slowly.


Answers the question how.
He speaks very slowly.
Answers the question how slowly.

www.kampung-inggris-pare.id / www.titiknol-english.com

 Rule 1. Secara umum, jila kata/phrase bisa menjawab soal dari how, maka pastikan itu
adalah adverb. Fungsi dasar Adverb adalah untuk menjelaskan Verb, sedangkan fungsi
dasar Adjective adalah untuk menjelaskan Noun.

Contoh ; She thinks slowly / slow


Menjelaskan bagaimana cara perempuan itu berfikir.

She has slowly / slow response.


Menjelaskan kemampuan respon dari perempuan tersebut.

She always studies diligently / diligent.


Menjelaskan bagaimana cara perempuan itu belajar.

She is diligently / diligent student.


Menjelaskan sifat dari perempuan tersebut sebagai siswa.

 Rule 2. Good adalah adjective, sedangkan well adalah adverb.

Contoh ; You did a good job.


Good describes the job.
You did the job well.
Well answers how.
You smell good today.

 Rule 3. Ketila merujuk ke kesehatan, gunakan well.

Contoh ; I do not feel well.


You do not look well today.

Note
good noleh digunakan untuk melengkapi feel ketika tidak menerangkan kesehatan.
Contoh ; I feel good about my decision to learn Spanish.

 Rule 4. Kesalahan yang sering di lakukan dalam membedakan adjective dan adverb adalah
ketika menggunakan bentuk yang salah dalam perbandingan. Contoh sederhana ‘She is
poor’. Untuk membandingkan dua benda ‘poorer, dan yang ketika leih dr 2 orang’ poorest’.

Contoh ; One Two Three or More


sweet sweeter Sweetest
bad worse Worst
efficient more efficient most efficient

www.kampung-inggris-pare.id / www.titiknol-english.com

Note
Biasanya kata yang mempunyaui syllable tiga atau menggunakan more or most didepan kata.

 Rule 6. Ketika this, that, these, dan those di ikuti oleh noun, maka berubah menjadi
adjective. Ketika tidak ada yang mengikuti, maka menjadi pronoun

Contoh ; This house is for sale.


This adalah adjective.

This is for sale.


This adalah pronoun.

 Rule 7. Dalam penggunaannya sebagai adjective atau pronoun, this dan that tetap singular
(tunggal)
Contoh ; This dog is mine.
That dog is hers.
This is mine.
That is hers.

 Rule 8. Dalam penggunaannya sebagai adjective atau pronoun, these dan those tetap
splural (jamak)

Contoh ; These babies have been smiling for a long time.


These are mine.
Those babies have been crying for hours.
Those are yours.

Effective Writing

 Rule 1. Gunakan kalaimat yang kongkrit daripada kalimat yang samar.

Contoh ;

Samar : The weather was of an extreme nature on the East Java

jelas : Surabaya had very hot weather last week.

 Rule 2. Usahakan selalu menggunakan kalimat aktif daripada kalimat passive.

Contoh ;

Active : The professor will publish the journal.

Passive : The journal will be published by the professor.

 Rule 3. Hindari terlalu banyak penggunaan there is, there are, it is, it was, dll

Contoh ; There is a case of dengue fever that was reported in the newspaper.

Correction : A case of dengue fever was reported in the newspaper.

Even Better : The newspaper reported a case of meningitis. (Active Voice)

 Rule 4. Untuk menghindari kebingungan, jangan menggunakan dua unsur negative

untuk membentuk sebuah kalimat yang positif

Contoh ;

Incorrect : He is not unwilling to help.

Correct : He is willing to help.

 Rule 5. Gunakan parrarel structure untuk memberikan ide ide yang sama.

Contoh ;

Correct : You should check your spelling, grammar, and punctuation.

Incorrect : You should check your spelling, grammar, and punctuating.

• Use formal linking words (e.g. despite, nevertheless, furthermore)
• Do not use contractions (doesn’t, don’t wouldn’t, it’s, can’t, etc)
