adverbial modifier in a sentence
Examples

" subir corriendo " or " salir volando "; the respective English equivalents of these examples'to run up'and'to fly out' show that English is, by contrast, " satellite-framed ", with mode of locomotion expressed in the verb and direction in an adverbial modifier ).
