ADV: adverb

Definition

Adverbs are words that typically modify verbs for such categories as time, place, direction or manner. They may also modify adjectives and other adverbs, as in väga hea ‘very good’ or väga hästi ‘very well’. Pronominal adverbs, e.g. siin ‘here’, seal ‘there’, siis ‘then’, millal ‘when’ , nii ‘so’ are tagged as adverbs in the current version of Estonian UD.
Some adverbs may also function as verbal particles in Estonian, they are still tagged ADV and not PART, e.g. välja mõtlema ‘contrive’, lit. ‘think out’.
