An adverbial noun is a noun that functions as an adverb in a sentence, providing information about how, when, where, or to what extent an action occurs. These nouns often describe time, distance, manner, or reason and can modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. For example, in the sentence "He arrived yesterday," the noun "yesterday" acts as an adverbial noun indicating when the action of arriving took place. Other examples include "home" in "She went home" and "Monday" in "We will meet Monday." Understanding adverbial nouns is important for recognizing how certain nouns can influence the meaning of a sentence by providing additional context about the action or situation.
