The article discusses the adverbial phrases (of place, time, mood and cause) in the Freising Monuments (Brižinski spomeniki) (972-1039), the oldest documented language variant of Slovene. The typology of the adverbial phrases is presented. The state of affairs in the Freising Monuments is compared with that in Old Church Slavic (863-885), which presents a more archaic state, more similar to the Proto-Slavic one.
