ADVERBS.1. There are not many simple adverbs in theIrish language. Par the greatest number <strong>of</strong> theIrish adverbs are compounds <strong>of</strong> two or more words.2. An adverb may be formed from an adjectiveby prefixing the particle 50, which in this applicationhas the same effect as the English postfix ly ;as bopb, fierce ; 50 bopb, fiercely. Almost allIrish adjectives admit <strong>of</strong> being changed in thismanner to adverbs.8. Besides the adverbs formed in this way, thereare many compound adverbs, which are generallymade up <strong>of</strong> a noun and a preposition ;the preposition<strong>of</strong>ten causing an ecHpsis.4. The following is an alphabetical list <strong>of</strong> thecompound adverbs in most general use, with a few<strong>of</strong> the simple adverbs. Some <strong>of</strong> the compoundadverbs become, in some situations, prepositions :—Q b-pat>, far <strong>of</strong>f, in space or Q t>-cora6, at first, in thetime.beginning.Obup, on this side. (See O O-cuatD, northwards.call.)a 5-ceat>6ip, immediately.
