Lesson

Composing Clear and Coherent
Sentences Using Adverbs of
Intensity and Frequency
What’s In
In the previous lessons, you have encountered adverbs or words that describe
adjectives, verbs, and other adverbs. You may remember that many adverbs end with
-ly such as gracefully, beautifully, frequently, seriously, and quietly to name a
few. Because of this, you can immediately identify them when you see them in these
examples:
The restaurant serves food daily.
The barangay captain repeatedly announced the impending lockdown.
Our parents care about us deeply.
Take note also of the meaning of each word. Does the adverb talk about “how
often” something happens or “how much” something is felt or done?
Now, using this basic knowledge on adverbs, try the next activity.
Directions: Read the following sentences. Tell if the underlined adverb in each
sentence has something to do with frequency (how often something happens) or
intensity (how strong or weak, high or low something exists). Write your answers in
a notebook.
1. We need to work every day.
2. The drone flew extremely close to the ground.
3. My friend usually calls me “Tisoy.”
4. Unable to leave the house due to the lockdown, Jack felt exceedingly bored
and restless.
5. I was terribly hungry, so I ate four eggs, six slices of bread, two pieces of
chicken wings, a plate of pasta, and a gallon of ice cream.

CO_Q1_ENGLISH5_Module4_Lesson4
What Is It
Adverbs describe or modify a verb, an adjective or another adverb. Adverbs
are words that answer questions like how, when, where and to what extent.
In this module, we shall focus on two types of adverbs: adverbs of frequency
and adverbs of intensity.
A. Adverbs of Intensity
Adverbs of intensity are adverbs that tell “to what extent” something exists
or is done. Usually, adverbs of intensity are written before the verb, adjective, or
adverb that they modify although there are some exceptions. The words “very,”
“quite,” “too,” “absolutely,” “extremely,” and “so” are examples of adverbs of intensity.
Examples:
1. You are working too diligently. (more diligent)
2. The water was extremely cold. (the cold is unbearable)
3. The movie was quite fascinating. (completely interesting)
4. The group just left. (they left very recently)
5. He has almost finished his assignment. (about to finish)
B. Adverbs of Frequency
Adverbs of frequency tell “how often” an action is done. The most commonly
used adverbs of frequency are: always, frequently, occasionally, sometimes, never,
often, seldom, and usually. Adverbs of frequency are usually placed before a verb
since they describe the frequency of the act or event stated in the verb.
Examples:
1. Lastikman always wears his mask on every mission.
2. Mary usually picks her up at the bus terminal.
3. Ben and Emma often go out for lunch together.
4. During rainy days, Jade sometimes comes to school wearing her raincoat.
5. Nick and Nadia rarely see each other because of the pandemic.
If we go back to your answers in the activity on the “thoughtful parents,” you
will notice that the answers consisted of both adverbs of frequency (always think,
never forget, and sometimes need) and adverbs of intensity (very attentive and too
much).
6
CO_Q1_ENGLISH5_Module4_Lesson4
What’s More
Directions: Fill in the blanks with appropriate adverbs to make the sentence correct
and complete. Write your answers in your notebook.
1. Today is (very, much) __________ colder than yesterday.
2. Electric cars (never, sometimes) use gasoline.
3. The Philippines is (much, very) __________ rich in natural resources.
4. Liza Soberano’s looks are (quite, often) __________ stunning.
5. My brother and I (usually, extremely) __________ play basketball in the
afternoon.
6. Typhoons (absolutely, often) __________ form in the Pacific.
7. Sander is a (completely, highly) __________ skilled computer technician.
8. I (seldom, sometimes) __________ eat shrimp due to my allergy.
9. The concert was (wildly, absolutely) __________ wonderful.
10. People are (too, only) afraid to go out nowadays.
What I Have Learned
Here is a summary of what you have learned today. Read each sentence aloud
and try to remember these general ideas.
• Adverbs are words that describe adjectives, verbs, and other adverbs.
• There are many types of adverbs including adverbs of frequency and
adverbs of intensity.
• Adverbs of frequency are adverbs that tell how often something
happens.
• Adverbs of intensity are adverbs that tell about the degree of an action
or condition.

  • 9. 5 CO_Q1_ENGLISH5_Module4_Lesson4 What Is It Adverbs describe or modify a verb, an adjective or another adverb. Adverbs are words that answer questions like how, when, where and to what extent. In this module, we shall focus on two types of adverbs: adverbs of frequency and adverbs of intensity. A. Adverbs of Intensity Adverbs of intensity are adverbs that tell “to what extent” something exists or is done. Usually, adverbs of intensity are written before the verb, adjective, or adverb that they modify although there are some exceptions. The words “very,” “quite,” “too,” “absolutely,” “extremely,” and “so” are examples of adverbs of intensity. Examples: 1. You are working too diligently. (more diligent) 2. The water was extremely cold. (the cold is unbearable) 3. The movie was quite fascinating. (completely interesting) 4. The group just left. (they left very recently) 5. He has almost finished his assignment. (about to finish) B. Adverbs of Frequency Adverbs of frequency tell “how often” an action is done. The most commonly used adverbs of frequency are: always, frequently, occasionally, sometimes, never, often, seldom, and usually. Adverbs of frequency are usually placed before a verb since they describe the frequency of the act or event stated in the verb. Examples: 1. Lastikman always wears his mask on every mission. 2. Mary usually picks her up at the bus terminal. 3. Ben and Emma often go out for lunch together. 4. During rainy days, Jade sometimes comes to school wearing her raincoat. 5. Nick and Nadia rarely see each other because of the pandemic. If we go back to your answers in the activity on the “thoughtful parents,” you will notice that the answers consisted of both adverbs of frequency (always think, never forget, and sometimes need) and adverbs of intensity (very attentive and too much).
