3.1. Adverbs
As you know, the adverbs tell qualities of verbs, like adjectives. This means it can be classified in different groups by their meaning:
3.1.1. Adverb of Quantity: expresses the quantity, like váĵ, which means much
3.1.2. Adverb of Time: expresses the time, like agórĵena, which means now
3.1.3. Adverb of Place: expresses the place, like jekké, which means here
3.1.4. Adverbs of Affirmation and Negation: expresses whether it's being affirmed or negatied, like bé, yes, or ká, no
3.1.5. Adverbs of Question and Exclamation: expresses interrogative or excalamtive sentences, like kjúto, what?, or kóĵ, what!
3.1.6. Adverbs of Manner: expresses the way it's done, like béjen, which means good
3.1.7. Adverbs of Doubt: expresses a doubt, like kŵizáqa, which means maybe
3.1.8. Realtive Adverbs: relates to a thing already mentioned, like kwéɋ, which means which
Adverbial phrases also exist in the language, although we're not going that far with them.
3.2. Adpositions
The adpositions convey a meaning and use which can vary depending of the word it is. This part of speech is called "adposition" since it can be placed at the start or at the end depending of the speaker's choice, not depending on the word's defined place. For example, the preposition ókil, which means of, can be either placed at the start or the end, but not if a specific adposition is used only at the start, it can be placed wherever the speaker wants, at the start or at the finish, as we said before.
3.3. Conjunctions / Connectors
The conjunctions, also called as connectors, are invariable words which are used in specific moments and in specific places of the sentence. These can be classified in two groups depending of their function, and then ins everal subgroups also depending on their function. There are lots of types of conjunctions, so we're hust going to list them, but not explain it or give examples. If you have a doubt about some type, check on Google since the article will get too long
