To form an adverb, simply take the feminine
form of an adjective and add -ment to the end. If
the masculine form ends in -e, you just add the
-ment to that. Adjectives ending in -ent or
-ant take the endings -emment and -amment.

Note: Adverbs are placed
right after the verb in a simple tense. Adverbs
of opinion and time usually go at the beginning
or end of the sentence. When peut-être
and sans doute begin a sentence or clause,
they are usually followed by que. With
the passé composé, most adverbs are placed between
the auxiliary verb and past participle. In
negative sentences, pas precedes the adverb,
except with peut-être, sans doute, sûrement,
and probablement. Adverbs of time and
place generally follow the past participle.
