
An adverb may sometimes replace, with little difference in
meaning, an adj functioning as a verb less clause:
Eg: Happy, she opened the gift
Happily, she opened the gift


(When the implied subject is the whole clause, a corresponding
adverb can replace the adj with little or difference in meaning, as with
strangely for strange:

Strangely, it was she wanted to live far from home

The adj, unlike the adverb, allows a that- or how-clause to follow:

+that……

Exclamatory adjectives sentence

An adj as head of an adj phrase or its sole realization can
be an exclamation:

com


Postposition is obligatory for a few adj, which have a
different sense when they occur attributively or
predicatively. The most common are probably elect and
proper as in: “the Pesident elect the city London proper”
