Q

Adjectives into Adverbs

A

Take the Adjective and add -mente. That’s it.

One more thing you need to keep in mind is that if you want to use two adverbs with the suffix -mente in the same sentence, the first one will be used as an adjective and the second one will have the -mente suffix.

For example:

Hice el Camino de Santiago lenta y tranquilamente.
“I did the Camino de Santiago slowly and calmly.”
Me dijo que me callara dulce y suavemente.
“She told me to shut up sweetly and softly.”

(When an adjective has a written accent, the adverb retains it.)
