INTRODUCTION

A. Background of the paper


If you are learning English at a college, school or further education
institution, you join approximately one billion other people around the
world who are involved in the same pursuit. However, because you are
trying to memorize proper grammar, and try to avoid the common mistake
for students learning English, you might be wondering why you can learn
English in the first place.

Language plays an important role in human life. One seeks to


acquire, learn and use the language as a means of communication, and social
as well as a symbol of humanity. By using the language a person can make
statements, convey facts and knowledge, explain or report something, and
maintaining social relationships between the users of the language. This
shows that by using language, people can express their ideas, feelings, etc.
of information through communication.

In developing countries such as Indonesia, the UK has a vital role in


all aspects of life, especially in science and technology. Furthermore, it can
be used to develop relationships in international forums, to read English
books (especially for students from elementary school to college/university
), to strengthen the relationship between the nations of the world, etc. As
students, we learn English intended to acquire a variety of knowledge, to
understand and comprehend textbooks in English learning, to acquire
knowledge and skills, and ready to go to university, as one of the
requirements of the test for senior high school students ( high School), etc.
Given the critical role of the language in, which is why English is very

1
important to understand and master by every people around the world since
the previous year.

As global or universal language, English is not only enables us to


communicate and interact with everyone around the world, but also can
change our lives for the better. In addition, we also have to realize that the
western countries played a remarkable role in developing and maintaining
science and technology. So, if we wanted to be skilled scientists understand
linguists, and able to compete with other countries in the world, we have to
master and learn their language, namely English.

Lastly, if you study English at school, college or university,


remember that getting an A in English is almost worthless, in terms of
communication, if you can not speak the language Spoken English is the
best career, the best universities, and is increasingly being used at job
interviews. So like it or not, English is the language that is very important
to learn how to talk.

English is spoken as a first language by around 375 million, as a


second language by many people and as a foreign language by around 750
million. It has official or special status in at least 70 countries and is being
studied by an estimated one billion people. These figures alone make the
English language is important to learn in tourism, media, internet, business.

CHAPTER II
DISCUSSION
A. Definition of Adverb of time
Several adverbs express time and they are called as adverbs of time
(Sargeant, 2007; Payne, 2011; Torres-Gouzerh, 2016). This kind of adverb
expands the meaning of a sentence by provide information about when an
action happens. As Cookson and Stirk (2019) stated that when making a
statement, it is important to make it clear whether a situation exists now,
existed in the past, or is likely to exist in the future. Beside tenses, the use
of time adverbials or adverb of time is another. Although sometimes the
tense may already provide a clear time period and no other time reference
is required, the use of adverb of time is important to draw attention to the
time of the action. Some examples of adverbs of time are tomorrow, today,
never, soon, yesterday, and yet.
(1) They will arrive tomorrow.
(2) Will you come home soon?

In sentence (1), the adverb tomorrow give information on when the


arrival will happen. It will be on the next day, not yesterday, not today nor
on other time. Example (2) also shows when the action "come" is expected
to happen in a short time after the present moment.

An adverb of time can be a definite word as in (1) and can be an


indefinite word as in (2) (DeCapua, 2017). The definite adverb of time is
typically designating a clear unquestionnable time or period of time of when
something happens, such as yesterday, today, tomorrow, last week, next
month, and a year ago. Examples are shown below.
(3) The students visited the museum last week.
(4) We moved here a year ago.
(5) We are going to a vacation in Bali next month.

4
Meanwhile, indefinite adverbs are those which do not indicate the
exact or precise time period such as now, then, soon, just, before, still,
already, and next. In these 3 examples below, the exact time when the action
happens or is carried out is not clearly stated.
(6) Andy must submit the paper and then contact the professor.
(7) The bell just rang.
(8) The train has already left.

Adverbs of time, as its definition, are those words modifying other


words to state when something takes place. It should be separated from other
kinds of adverbs which describe how long an action occur, the adverb of
duration (i.e. for two weeks, all afternoon, one week), and which express an
exact number of times the action happens, the adverb of frequency (i.e.
weekly, daily, annually).

When modifying a verb, the adverb of time used in a sentence must


concord with the tense of the sentence. For example, the time adverb
yesterday can only be used with the simple past tense, while tomorrow can
only be used with the future tense.
(9) We will go to the party tomorrow.
(10) We will go to the party yesterday.
(11) We went to the party yesterday.
(12) We went to the party tomorrow.

The examples in (9) and (11) are the correct formula since the use
of time adverbs tomorrow and yesterday concord with the tenses of each
sentence. The verb will go is a future action indicating that the action has
not occurred yet and will happen in a future time. The adverb tomorrow
gives exact timeof when it will happen. In (11), the verb went is the past
form of the verb go which indicates that the action has occurred in a time in
the past. The adverb yesterday provides a precise time of when it occurred.

5
The sentences in (10) and (12) are the incorrect ones since the adverbs does
not in accordance with the tenses.

Adverbs of time can be divided into two groups, namely:

1) Adverb of Definite Time


Adverbs of definite time are used to express a specific time, for example:
at 7 o'clock, at half past seven, a week ago, every morning etc.
Some examples of their use in sentences:
• We get up at 7 o'clock.
• He returned from Mataram a week ago.
• I sweep the floor every day.
• You can see me in the morning.

2) Adverb of Indefinite Time Adverb of indefinite time is used to express


an indefinite time, for example: already, always, before etc.
Some examples of their use in sentences:
• Arvin always gets up early.
• He doesn't always get upearly.
• Armed is always late.

B. Characteristics of Adverb of time

One of the main characteristics of adverb form is that they end in -ly (Torres-
Gouzerh, 2016; DeCapua, 2017; Swick, 2018). It is a quick way to identify most
adverbs. Some examples are regularly (in a regular manner), happily (in a happy
manner), and locally (in a local area).

(13) My daughter calls me regularly.

(14) They are happily married.

(15) They only shopped locally.

6
However, adverbs including adverbs of time not always end in -ly, as punctually,
quickly, suddenly, early, and those in the examples above. Some are in the form of
these words today, tomorrow, yesterday, tonight, late, early, and never. For detailed
form of adverbs that do not end in -ly, they may appear in form of adverb word and
adverb phrase.

An Adverb:

(16) The boys will come home late.

(17) I will call her immediately.

(18) We are going to the party tonight.

A Prepositional Phrase:

A prepositional phrase can also modify a verb. If a phrase modifies a verb, it is


considered adverbial. When a prepositional phrase of time modifies a verb, it is
acting as time adverbial. An adverb or adverb prepositional phrase is a prepositional
phrase that modifies a verb.

(19) The plane will depart at eight o'clock.

(20) The ceremony was held on Monday.

(21) Our family always go to the beach on the weekend.

The prepositional phrase in the examples above are acting as time adverbial because
they modify the verb by giving information on when the action happens. In sentence
(15), the prepositional phrase at eight o'clock modifies the verb "depart" and
provide information on when the departure is going to happen. The phrase on
Monday and on the weekend also act the same for the passive verb "was held" and
for the verb "go".

7
A Noun Phrase:

(22) He goes to school this morning.

(23) I went early the next day to submit the paper.

(24) Randy bought a new laptop last week.

In the examples above, the noun phrases this morning, the next day, and last week
are acting as adverbs of time because they modify the verb in each sentence "goes",
"went" and "bought". They provide information on when the actions happen.

C. Formation of Adverb of Time in Sentences

Adverbs of time provide information about when or for how long an


action takes place. The formation of adverbs of time can vary, and they are
often created from other words or phrases. Here are some common ways
adverbs of time are formed:

1. Simple Adverbs:

Formation: Some adverbs of time are simple words without any


modification. Examples: Now, then, today, tomorrow, yesterday

2. Adverbs with "-ly" Suffix:

Formation: Many adverbs of time are formed by adding the "-ly" suffix to
adjectives or nouns. Examples: Daily, weekly, yearly, hourly

3. Adverbs from Adjective + "ly":

Formation: Adverbs of time can be formed by adding the "-ly" suffix to


certain adjectives. Examples: Quick → Quickly, sudden → Suddenly

4. Adverbs from Prepositions:

8
Formation: Some adverbs of time are formed from prepositions. Examples:
Before, after, during, soon

5. Adverbial Phrases:

Formation: Adverbs of time can also be formed by using phrases.


Examples: In the morning, at night, for hours, during the day

6. Using Specific Time Words:

Formation: Adverbs of time can be specific words indicating a particular


point in time. Examples: Now, then, soon, later, today, yesterday, tomorrow

7. Frequency Adverbs:

Formation: Some adverbs of time indicate how often an action occurs.


Examples: Always, usually, often, sometimes, rarely

8. Temporal Connectors:

Formation: Certain words function as adverbs of time when used to


connect sentences or clauses. Examples: Meanwhile, subsequently,
afterwards

Remember that adverbs of time help specify when an action occurs,


and their formation can depend on the context and the specific details of the
time being described.

D. Definition of Adverbs of modality


An adverb of modality is a type of adverb that expresses the speaker's
attitude, opinion, or assessment regarding the likelihood, necessity,
certainty, or possibility of an action or event in a sentence. These adverbs
provide additional information about the speaker's perspective on the verb,
conveying the degree of certainty, obligation, or permission associated with
the action.

Function of Adverb of Modality:


The primary function of adverbs of modality is to modify verbs, adjectives,
or other adverbs by indicating the speaker's viewpoint or attitude. They help

9
convey the nuances of meaning related to how certain, probable, necessary,
or possible the speaker considers a particular action or state to be. Here are
some key functions:

1. Expressing Certainty:
- Examples: Certainly, definitely, surely, absolutely.
- Function: Used to indicate a high level of certainty or confidence in the
truth or occurrence of an action.

2. Expressing Probability:
- Examples: Probably, likely, possibly, perhaps.
- Function: Used to convey the likelihood or probability of an action or
event happening.

3. Expressing Necessity:
- Examples: Must, should, ought to.
- Function: Conveys a sense of obligation, necessity, or duty regarding the
action expressed in the sentence.

4. Expressing Possibility:
- Examples: Maybe, possibly, perhaps.
- Function: Indicates the potential for an action or event to occur without
making a definitive statement.

5. Expressing Permission:
- Examples: May, might, can.
- Function: Indicates the level of permission or allowance for a particular
action.

Example Sentences:
1. She will definitely attend the meeting. (Expressing certainty)
2. They are probably going to finish the project by Friday. (Expressing
probability)
3. You should submit your assignment by tomorrow. (Expressing necessity)
4. It might rain later, so bring an umbrella. (Expressing possibility)
5. May I come in? (Expressing permission)

In summary, adverbs of modality play a crucial role in shaping the speaker's


perspective on the actions or events described in a sentence, adding nuance
and conveying the speaker's attitude toward the information being
presented.

viewpoint. They provide information about the speaker's certainty, probability,
necessity, or permission regarding the action in the sentence.

2. Categories:

Adverbs of modality can be categorized into different types based on their


functions, such as certainty (e.g., definitely, certainly), probability (e.g., probably,
likely), necessity (e.g., must, should), possibility (e.g., perhaps, possibly), and
permission (e.g., may, might).

3. Degrees:

Adverbs of modality often indicate degrees or levels of certainty,


probability, or necessity. For example, they can express strong certainty (e.g.,
certainly), moderate probability (e.g., probably), or mild possibility (e.g., perhaps).

4. Modification of Verbs:

These adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs in a sentence.


They provide additional information about the action or state described, helping to
clarify the speaker's stance.

5. Subjectivity:

reflecting the speaker's personal judgment or assessment of the situation. They
reveal the speaker's perspective rather than presenting objective facts.

6. Position in a Sentence:

11
Adverbs of modality can be placed in different positions within a sentence,
including the mid-position (between the subject and the main verb), the initial
position (at the beginning of the sentence), or the end position (at the end of the
sentence). The placement can vary based on factors such as emphasis and formality.

7. Flexibility:

These adverbs offer flexibility in expressing a range of attitudes or opinions,


allowing speakers to communicate varying degrees of certainty, probability,
necessity, or permission.

8. Impact on Meaning:

The choice of adverb of modality can significantly impact the meaning of a


sentence, influencing how the information is perceived by the listener or reader. For

5. Using Modal Adverbs:

Certain adverbs, often called modal adverbs, function as adverbs of modality.


Examples: Certainly, definitely, probably, possibly

6. Using Phrases:

possibility, necessity, or probability. Examples: In all likelihood, to a certain extent,
in all probability

7. Using Specific Words:

Some adverbs of modality are specific words that convey a particular modality.
Examples: Surely, undoubtedly, perhaps, maybe

It's important to note that adverbs of modality play a crucial role in expressing
the speaker's attitude toward the likelihood, necessity, or possibility of an action.
The formation of these adverbs allows for a nuanced expression of the speaker's
perspective in various contexts.

17
CHAPTER III
CLOSING
A. Conclusion
The main characteristic of an adverb is that it is not directly
integrated in the sentence, it acts as an additional description of a word or
phrase in a sentence. So, a sentence should still be able to stand even without
an adverb. Although the information of the sentence is reduced, the absence
of an adverb does not turn a sentence into an imperfect one. Adverbs
themselves are divided into several types such as, Adverbs of time, Adverbs
of modality, Adverbs of certainty, and others.
