Adverbs
A very common way of forming adverbs is by adding the ending '-sti' to the inflecting form of the corresponding adjective:
Adverbs | |
---|---|
Finnish | English |
'nopea, nopeasti' | 'quick, quickly' |
'kaunis, kauniisti' | 'beautiful, beautifully' |
'hidas, hitaasti' | 'slow, slowly' |
'helppo, helposti' | 'easy, easily' |
Adverbs are modifying verbs, not nouns, therefore they don't inflect.
