The final e is dropped from the base word when we spell the word believable because the suffix begins with a vowel. The suffix used in the word believable is -able. This is one of the vowel suffixes. The general rule is, in order to add a vowel suffix to a word ending in silent e, the final e should be removed then connect the vowel suffix.

That old house looked spookier <u>than</u> any other house in the neighborhood.

An adverb clause is a collection of words this is used to exchange or qualify the meaning of an adjective, a verb, a clause, any other adverb, or another sort of word or phrase except determiners and adjectives that immediately regulate nouns. Adverb clauses usually meet three necessities: First, an adverb clause continually consists of a subject and a verb. Second, adverb clauses comprise subordinate conjunctions that prevent them from containing complete thoughts and becoming complete sentences. Third, all adverb clauses solution one of the conventional adverb questions: while? Why? How? where?

An adverb of time states when something happens or how often. An adverb of time often starts with one of the following subordinating conjunctions: after, as, as long as, as soon as, before, no sooner than, since, until, when, or while.

An adverb of manner states how something is done. An adverb of manner often starts with one of the following subordinating conjunctions: as, like, or the way.
