Abstract
In this paper, adverbs are defined as noun-like content words with analogous lexico-semantic components.
Adverbs are invariable words denoting features of any kind (quantitative, qualitative, spatial, temporal, modal), in other words, common states, quantities and locations in time and space. They are grammatically invariable, since they denote inanimate phenomena (and therefore have no relation to biological sex or to the grammatical category of gender); without the potential for quantitative
concretization (expressed by the number forms) and most often without relation to referentiality, since they are applied to nominals or verbs whose forms are referential or non-referential.
Key words: parts of speech, adverb, lexico-semantic characterization, grammatico-semantic characterization, shifters
