+Typically adverbials follow the word they modify, however adverbials which modify adjective may precede it (specially in colloquial speech). If the verb has several adverbials, they may be split -- some precede the verb, while others follow it, but otherwise adverbial's word order is:
-  - Place (where?)
-  - Manner (how? why?)
+^ Position((relative to main word)) ^ 1  ^ 2  ^ 3  ^ Example ^
-  - Time (when?)
+^ preceeding/split | Time (when?) | Manner (how? why?) | Place (where?) | Ârshik tadoguz ash lûg ulsarz Ashûk Urunir = lit. "Yesterday he killed a dragon easily at the Lonely Mountain" |
+^ following  | Place (where?) | Manner (how? why?) | Time (when?) | Tadoguz ash lûg Ashûk Urunir ulsarz ârshik = lit. "He killed a dragon at the Lonely Mountain easily yesterday" |
+When adverbial phrase consists of more than one word it is often shifted to the end of sequence of adverbials: "Tadoguz ash lûg ulsarz ârshik Ashûk Urunir" (lit. "He killed a dragon easily yesterday at the Lonely Mountain").
