Asked by Kris
Can you please tell me what "first" is in the following sentence.
It was up to another American, Robert Fulton, to develop the first widely successful steamboat.
I think "first" is an adjective modifying steamboat. Thanks, Kris
You are correct
thank you so much!
Just a rule of thumb: Adverbs answer the questions -- when, where, how, how much, how many, why, or negative/positive.
