We have several options: we may be tempted to try to live by the Christian ideal of being "our brother's keeper," or by the Marx

ist ideal of "to each according to his needs." Since the needs of all in the water are the same, and since they can all be seen as "our brothers," we could take them all into our boat, making a total of 150 in a boat designed for 60. The boat swamps, everyone drowns. Complete justice, complete catastrophe.
Garrett Hardin, "Lifeboat Ethics: The Case Against Helping the Poor

Give the adverbial form of the word habit
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Habitually.

Explanation:

A verb is one of the parts of speech in English language. Verbs can be defined as any word that describes an action, occurrence, or state of existence. Some examples of verb are dance, sing, walk, play, run, sit, habit, etc.

An adverb can be defined as a word that is used in English language to modify a verb, adjective, or another adverb. Some examples are slowly, quickly, brightly, sadly, etc.

When an adverb is used to refer to a whole sentence in order to express an opinion, describe an attitude or simply act as a comment, it is known as a sentence adverb. Some examples of this type of adverb are however, clearly, sadly, evidently, fortunately, seriously, curiously, actually, presumably, apparently, etc.

Furthermore, the adverbial form of a word is usually formed by the suffix "ly" to a verb.

Hence, the adverbial form of the word "habit" is habitually. This simply means an action that is performed regularly, frequently or usually i.e in a habitual manner.
