Adverbs before adjectives and adverbs

Incredibly – extremely
Very – really - so

“All these words give emphasis to adjectives and adverbs. These make it
stronger but there are levels. “Incredibly” and “extremely” are more than
“very, really and so”.”

Pretty – fairly

“These words also make adjectives and adverbs stronger, they mean “a
lot” but they´re less than “very, really and so”.”

Absolutely/Really + strong adjective or adverb

“We use these words before adjectives and adverbs that are ALREADY
strong. We can ONLY use these 2 adverbs.”

At all= 0%

“We can use “at all” to emphasis a NEGATIVE statement. We add “at all”
after the adjective or adverb. We use this only in negative sentences.”

“Completely and “totally” mean 100% and we place it before the adjective
or adverb.”

adjective prefixes.

“A prefix is the letters we add to an adjective to give the word a different


meaning. This is common in English. In this lesson the prefixes change the
adjectives to opposites. We CAN´T do this with ALL adjectives. ONLY with
some. For now, we need to learn these adjectives and these prefixes.”

There are no specific rules about prefixes, we just have to learn which are
possible and which aren´t.
