Adverbs are a vague category in English. In Brooding, they are more defined. There are no single adverb words in Brooding. Rather, adverbs are expressed entirely through adverbial phrases and clauses. These are used to modify the action of the verb, and usually appear at the end of the sentence. However, they can appear at the beginning to indicate importance or to reduce ambiguity. | Adverbs are a vague category in English. In Brooding, they are more defined.

Where in English we would add an ‘ly’, Brooding uses an adverbial phrase with the preposition ''[[Contionary: otlai|otlai]] ''. For example, ‘happily’ would be ''[[Contionary: otlai|otlai]] [[Contionary: taefuh|taefuh]]'' (literally “as if happy”). | Where in English we would add an ‘ly’, Brooding uses an adverbial phrase with the preposition ''[[Contionary: otlai#Brooding|otlai]] ''. For example, ‘happily’ would be ''[[Contionary: otlai#Brooding|otlai]] [[Contionary: taefuh#Brooding|taefuh]]'' (literally “as if happy”). | ||
Those times when an adverb would indicate time (“tomorrow,” “ a long time ago,” etc), the preposition ''[[Contionary: tootlende|tootlende]]'' is used. Example: ''[[Contionary: tootlende|tootlende]] [[Contionary: hlaud|hlaud]]'' (literally “during now”) | Those times when an adverb would indicate time (“tomorrow,” “ a long time ago,” etc), the preposition ''[[Contionary: tootlende#Brooding|tootlende]]'' is used. Example: ''[[Contionary: tootlende#Brooding|tootlende]] [[Contionary: hlaud#Brooding|hlaud]]'' (literally “during now”) | ||
More complex adverbial clauses use an adverbial preposition followed by a sentence to make a dependent clause, for example “When I see it” is an adverbial clause. This would be ''[[Contionary: tleste|tleste]] [[Contionary: agen|agen]] [[Contionary: leed|leed]] [[Contionary: awtluht|awtluht]]''. | More complex adverbial clauses use an adverbial preposition followed by a sentence to make a dependent clause, for example “When I see it” is an adverbial clause.

Note: The clause and the sentence it modifies still must adhere to the verb-second rule of Brooding. This means in the clause itself (if it contains a dependent clause) the adverbial preposition is the first constituent. Thus, the verb is next, not the subject. Additionally, if the adverbial phrase is first in the sentence, then it is the first constituent and the main verb is next. | Note: The clause and the sentence it modifies still must adhere to the verb-second rule of Brooding.
