Types of Adverb
Hello,
I have gone through grammar books and online sites. Most of the online sites and some grammar books show that there are 5 types of adverbs. There are
adverb of manner - place - time - frequency - degree.
So, what about adverb of purpose/reason and adverb of cause/effect?
Are these types belong any other category?Please help me with this question.
