22 Adverbs derived from adjectives
Наречия, производные от прилагательных↑ AdverbМногие наречия в английском языке образованы от прилагательных при помощи суффикса -ly. При этом встречаются следующие исключения.1)а) Некоторые прилагательные сами оканчиваются на -ly и не образуют наречий: costly - дорогостоящий, cowardly - трусливый, deadly - смертельный, friendly - дружественный, lively - активный, lonely - одинокий, lovely - красивый, manly - мужественный, silly - глупый, ugly - безобразный и др. Для выражения соответствующих значений в наречной функции используются описательные конструкции.He looked at me in a friendly way — Он посмотрел на меня по-дружески
She uttered some ugly words — Она грязно выругалась
б) Прилагательные daily - ежедневный, weekly - еженедельный, monthly - ежемесячный, yearly - ежегодный, early - ранний, kindly - добрый и leisurely - неспешный употребляются как наречия без изменения формыThis magazine comes out weekly — Этот журнал выходит еженедельно
I followed him leisurely — Я не спеша последовал за ним
2) От некоторых прилагательных наречия образуются без суффикса -ly: fast - быстро, long - долго, low - низко, straight - прямоThrice he bent low as in homage — Он трижды низко поклонился, словно выражая почтение
3) Ряд наречий может использоваться без суффикса -ly в некоторых разговорных выражениях, чаще всего после глаголов. Особенно распространено такое употребление в американском варианте английского языка.easy - легко:
loud - громко:
Don't talk so loud — Не говори так громко
quick - быстро:
I'll get back as quick as I can — Я вернусь, как только смогу
real - по-настоящему:
The house was real big — Дом был действительно большой
right - верно:
You guessed right — Ты угадал правильно
slow - медленно:
We drove home slow — Мы медленно поехали домой
tight - плотно:
His hand on my shoulder held me tight — Его рука крепко держала меня за плечо
wrong - неверно:
You did it wrong — Вы сделали это неправильно
4) От некоторых прилагательных соотносимые по смыслу наречия образуются без суффикса -ly, а соответствующие формы на -ly имеют иное значение: fair (честно) - fairly (довольно), hard (крепко) - hardly (едва ли), late (поздно) - lately (недавно), high (высоко) - highly (исключительно), wide (широко) - widely ( в различных местах) и др.She came late — Она пришла поздно /
I read his book lately — Недавно я прочитал его книгу
The window was wide open — Окно было широко раскрыто /
The titanium alloys are widely used in aircraft parts — Сплавы титана широко используются в деталях для самолетов
5) От некоторых прилагательных соотносимые по смыслу наречия образуются при помощи суффикса -ly, а соответствующие формы без -ly в качестве наречий имеют иное значение: cleanly (чисто) - clean (полностью), finely (тонко) - fine (отлично), freely (свободно) - free (бесплатно), justly (справедливо) - just (как раз) и др.You can take it free — Вы можете взять это бесплатно
