Most adverbs are formed from an adjective:
easy (-y) + ily = easily
complete + ly = completely
automatic + ally = automatically
horrible (-le) + ly = horribly
happy(-y) + ily = happily
nice + ly = nicely
romantic + ally = romantically
simple (-le) + ly = simply
Some adverbs have the same form as an adjective:
close, daily, early, fast, hard, high, right
Adjective
Susan is fast (tells the way she is) fast is an adjective
Adverb
Susan runs fast (tells the way she runs) fast is an adverb
Adverbs of frequency
If the sentence has one verb (e.g. no auxiliary verb) put the adverb of frequency in the middle of the sentence after the subject and before the verb.
Example: Tom usually goes to work by car.
Come after the verb 'be':
Example: I am never late for work.
If the sentence has more than one verb (e.g. auxiliary verb), put the adverb of frequency before the main verb.
Examples: I can never remember anything!
Adverbs of manner
It cannot be put between a verb and its direct object. The adverb must be placed either before the verb or at the end of the clause.

He gave us generously the money. [incorrect]
