Hi, This is fine. " (It's so late. ) I think "far" is an adjective complement, making "so" and "very" adverbs, modifying the adjective.

  • Hi, This is fine.
  • " (It's so late.
  • ) I think "far" is an adjective complement, making "so" and "very" adverbs, modifying the adjective.
  • You could say, "It's so very far from here," which would be the same analysis, "so" modifying another adverb.
  • Sorry, away !

Hi,

This is fine. It's the same as "It's very far from here." (It's so late. It's so heavy.)

I think "far" is an adjective complement, making "so" and "very" adverbs, modifying the adjective.

You could say, "It's so very far from here," which would be the same analysis, "so" modifying another adverb.

Sorry, away!
