  • Example 2: She quickly finished her homework in the library. (Adverbial indicating place: <span style='color:blue'>in the library</span>)
  • Example 3: They will visit us during the summer. (Adverbial indicating time: <span style='color:red'>during the summer</span>)
  • Example 4: The cat slept under the table. (Adverbial indicating place: <span style='color:purple'>under the table</span>)
  • Example 5: He speaks French very fluently. (Adverbial indicating manner: <span style='color:orange'>very fluently</span>)
