There is a sentence " Ma mère nous a récompensés pour __nous être comportés______ correctement." in the tests for this lesson.
Where do you place adverbs with the passive voice verb. The placement of "correctement" at the end could be justified because it is a "long" adverb. But it also does modify the verb "se comporter". Where would an adverb like "bien" go?
Hi Jameson,
In the case of the adverb bien, it would go straight after nous être and before comportés -
but good point!
Adverbs have an inclination to follow right after the first verb (être). But if they are long, like correctement, then they are put at the end of the sentence.
