Adverbs of time tell when something
happened or will happen. They express a
point in time.
These adverbs of time are often used:
 to talk about the past: yesterday, the
day before, ago, last week/month/year
 to talk about the present: still, yet,
while, when
 to talk about the future: soon, then,
Adverbs that tell us when are usually
placed at the end of the sentence.

Examples:
Goldilocks went to the Bears' house
yesterday.
I saw Sally today.
I will call you later.
Adverbs that tell us for how long are also
usually placed at the end of the sentence.

Examples:
I stayed in Cebu for three days.
I am going on vacation for a week.
An adverb of place always talks about the
location where the action of the verb is
being carried out. They are
normally placed after a sentence’s object or
