Where does an adverb go?

Adverbs can be placed in many locations in a sentence depending on what they modify and how. Adverbs that modify a verb can appear at the beginning (Suddenly, without warning, he jumped from the balcony), before the verb (he immediately left), or after the verb (he ran quickly). Adverbs can also occur in adverbial phrases.

When adverbs modify an adjective, they are normally adjacent (next to them, mostly before than after, as in he was handsome, arguably), and when they modify other adverbs, they come immediately in front of them (e.g. very quickly).
