position of adverb

position of adverb

I have confusion about where in the sentence to place the adverb "mañana". For example, above it notes

"Cuando vayas mañana al mercado ... "

However, I'm confused as to why it would not have been "Cuando vayas al mercado mañana ..."

Please give some clarity.

Hola Pati

Both sentences are correct in Spanish. In English the position of adverbs is a bit more rigid than in Spanish. There is more flexibility for us, so the time adverb "mañana" can be placed right after the verb or right after "el mercado", both correct.

Saludos,
