Adverbs of place Adverbs of place tell where an action occurs. Some of these adverbs are single words. For example: abroad anywhere downstairs here
inside somewhere there underground
Other adverbs of place appear in phrase form, particularly in prepositional phrases. alongside the road at home in the bedroom
next door on the hearth over there
Let’s look at some example sentences: They lived abroad for five years. They were working somewhere on a secret project. Jack was making up the bed in the bedroom. We spend a lot of time at home.
