UNIT 2: A 13

3 Look at how we can use adverbs before adjectives, and then do theexercise below.

We can use adverbs (e.g. fairly, really) to make the meaningof an adjective stro nger or weaker:

less than very very more than very

fairly really absolutely

quite completely

rather

pretty

It's fairly cold.

Put a cross [Xl by the fouradverb + adjective combinationsthat are not possible.

It 's really cold.

a pretty amazingb abso lut ely bigc rea lly terrifyingd ver y interesti nge ab solutely fascinati ng

But note:• we usua lly only use absolutely

or completely w ith st rongeradject ives; for example, wedon 't say absolutely nice, butwe do say absolutely lovely

• we do n't use very withstronger adjectives becauseth ese adj ect ives alrea dy mean'very' (fo r ex ample, furiousmeans very a/lgry )

• pretty is much more commonin info rmal speech than inwriting.
