Hi everyone!
I'm confused with this:
which one is right grammatically and acceptable ?
"I have eaten meal quickly" or "I have quickly eaten meal"
My friend says you must put adverbs before past participle. Is it right?
Thanks!
 
Neither one is a natural sentence.
"I ate the meal quickly."
"I quickly ate the meal."
Both of the above are acceptable. They have slightly different meanings.
 
But if we skip the meaning, will it right to put "quickly" at the end of the sentence?
or we have to put it between "have" and "eaten" in my original sentence?

Please note my amendments above, in red.

As the others have said, we can't "skip the meaning"!
