Question What is the adverb in this question
Almost every person at the meeting was angry about the decision
Answer Matt:
Almost every person at the meeting was angry about the decision
*** The adverb is "almost." It modifies the adjective "every," which in turn modifies the noun "person." "Almost" is an adverb because it tells the "degree of something." For instance, NOT EVERY person was angry. So you must define the degree, which is ALMOST every person.
