Hello guys
As topic I post, Can We use it as adverb ?
This morning, I saw the phrase " This task is most important "
In this phrase, the word " most " in front of a adjective " important " and after " tobe ", I don't think this sentence is superlative, so I think it's a adverb, don't I ?
Thank you in advance :)
 
I see you posted the same thread here.

We recommend posting a question on one forum only initially. If you do not get a satisfactory answer from that forum and you feel that you have exhausted its possibilities, then of course trying a different forum might help. It is only courteous however, to tell the second forum that you have already asked the question on another forum and then give a precis of the answers you received there, or provide a link to it, along with an explanation of why you are now looking elsewhere.

Hello. [STRIKE]guys[/STRIKE] Don't use this.

As shown [STRIKE]topic I post[/STRIKE] in the title, can we use [STRIKE]it[/STRIKE] "most" as an adverb?

This morning, I saw the phrase "This task is most important."

In this phrase, the word "most" is in front of [STRIKE]a[/STRIKE] the adjective "important" and after "to (space here) be". I don't think this sentence is superlative, so I think it's an adverb. [STRIKE]don't I ?[/STRIKE]

[STRIKE]Thank you in advance.[/STRIKE] Unnecessary. Thank us after we help you, by clicking on the "Thank" button.

Sorry about that! [STRIKE]!![/STRIKE]
I posted on another forum (no comma here) because I want to see [STRIKE]multi-replying[/STRIKE] as many replies as possible. I'm worried [STRIKE]about if the forum I post,[/STRIKE] that people on one forum [STRIKE]don't[/STRIKE] might not answer my questions, so I post on others.

Thank you. I'll do better next time.

Please look carefully at my multiple corrections to your three posts. I think you are trying to write sentences that are too advanced for your level of English.

It's important to follow these rules of written English at all times:
- Start every sentence with a capital letter.
- End every sentence with one appropriate punctuation mark.
- Always capitalise the word "I" (first person singular pronoun).
- Always put a space after a comma, full stop, question mark or exclamation mark.
- Do not put a space before a comma, full stop, question mark or exclamation mark.
- Do not put a space after opening quotation marks.
- Do not put a space before closing quotation marks.
