19 Adverbs to Express Your Opinion in English | Build Your Vocabulary
Adverbs can add depth and precision when you express your opinion in English. For example, consider these two sentences.
1. The restaurant will be closed on Thursday for a private event.
2. Apparently, the restaurant will be closed on Thursday for a private event.
In the second sentence, one word was added. The English adverb apparently.
Do we really need it?
That depends on what you want to say. Do you want to add nuance when stating your opinion in English? Or do you want to highlight your feelings about the topic? Do you want to indicate judgment in your opinion?
