We're on technique four from strategy one of words. Technique four is to reduce adverb usage in sentences. Efforts are commonly used. I just used one myself to describe verbs or actions. And adverbs in of themselves, once again are not something that you don't want to use at all. But a lot of times the American language, the way we use it now, and especially in public institutions and government institutions, people tend to clutter language up with a lot of needless jargon, and extra descriptors that already describe what is being said in the verb for an adverb or, for example, an adjective is described and implied in the nail, so reduce adverb usage in sentences.
Most adverbs are unnecessary as they create redundancy by restating what is implied in the verb cut them unless they add new meanings. To the Senate. So there are cases where using an adverb Not only is helpful, but it's necessary. a case where it's not would be, for example, Shane easily aced the exam. If he aced the exam, we know that it was easy. You can't Ace an exam unless it's easy.
So in that case, you don't need easily Shane aced the exam would be a better way to work that. And then for another example, would be Susan smile joyfully at the passing crowd, okay, if someone smiles most of the time that is joyful. So you could just say Susan smiled at the passing crowd. Maybe she's a beauty queen or in a parade or whatever the case may be. Or maybe she met some people on the street that she was vaguely familiar with. But however, if Susan smiled sarcastically at the passing crowd, sarcastic at extra meaning to it that we wouldn't get just in the word smiled, so maybe she saw her high school rival on the street.
I'm out at night or something with her friends and so she smiled sarcastically at her, that would give an extra meaning to just smiled. If she smiled sadly, that would also add extra meaning to the sentence. So just to remember, reduce adverb usage in sentences by cutting out unnecessary ones that are implied in the verb that will give your sentences more crispness, it'll make your verb stand out more and it'll make it flow more effectively.
