## Adverbs derived from adjectives

NLS has no dedicated suffix to derive adverbs from adjectives (unlike the Italian -mente or English -ly): the adjective is used unchanged as an adverb too, letting sentence position clarify its function. Example: radu can mean either "ready" (adjective) or "readily" (adverb), depending on context.
