What Are Negative Adverbs?
Negative adverbs are words that modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs to express the absence or denial of something.
Negative Adverbs
Some adverbs have negative meanings. Take a look at the list below:
Seldom
Scarcely
Never
Hardly
Barely
Now, let us look at some examples below:
Example
She hardly skipped class.
They never cancel plans.
If these negative adverbs are used at the beginning of the sentences, we must change the place of the subject and the verb. Study the following examples carefully:
Example
Hardly was she able to come out of her room. (She was hardly able to...)
Little do they care about you.
Barely does Donald talk to his classmates.
