Document Summary
The introductory adverb: the introductory adverb introduces a sentence, usually modifying the main verb or the entire idea. When the adverb starts a sentence, it is followed by a comma. Amazingly, the baby slept past 6:00 am: interestingly,_____________________________________________________________________________________, surprisingly,____________________________________________________________________________________. Practice: the conjunctive adverb: the conjunctive adverb relates the idea expressed in one sentence with that expressed in a previous sentence. Often, writers underscore the close relationship between the two sentences by using a semicolon instead of a period. Remember not to capitalize the conjunctive adverb if it follows a semicolon. The conjunctive adverb may be moved to any ear-friendly location in the second sentence. I worked too hard today to stay out late tonight; furthermore, i have to get up before dawn. The cook was well schooled in french cuisine. However, i couldn"t remember the answer to question two. I couldn"t, however, remember the answer to question two.
