for certain diseases early???
Please look at this question.
"A study of over 2,000 adults demonstrated that beginning treatment for certain diseases ____ may help prevent severe cases"
(A) quite (B) early (C) very (D) nearly
The correct answer is (B) early. What I want to know is for the location of "early".
"A study of over 2,000 adults demonstrated that beginning treatment for certain diseases early may help prevent severe cases"
[Q1] It means "early" is an adjective. Can't I write " certain early disease"?
[Q2] "A study of over 2,000 adults demonstrated that beginning treatment for certain initial diseases may help prevent severe cases" is okay?
Thank you in advance for your teaching
