Is there an adverb in these sentence...

There is a big sale at the mall.
I think no adverb.

In the past, she has been very lucky with her buys.
I think lucky
Answered by Writeacher
The only adverb I see is an adverb phrase in the second sentence.

"lucky" = adjective, describing "she"
Answered by Ms. Sue
Very is an adverb modifying the adjective, lucky.
Answered by Writeacher
Ahh, Ms Sue is right ... I missed that one!!
Answered by Kelley
What about these?
She bought a rather expensive necklace very cheaply.

I think cheaply but is rather an adverb too?

For example, she once bought a nearly new tent at the outdoor store.
Nearly?
Answered by Writeacher
Yes, both "rather" and "cheaply" are adverbs.

And yes, "nearly."
