    Verbal Adverbs / Imperfective Verbal Adverb (Sentences)

    Hi everyone.

    As some of you know, I have asked few questions before about the perfective verbal adverbs. I would also be happy if someone help me on imperfective adverbs. I have few sentences that I am not sure if they are all correct.

    -Анна очень волновалась и рассказывала мне о болезни своего брата.
    -Когда Анна рассказывала мне о болезни своего брата, она очень волновалась.
    -Анна очень волновалась, рассказывая мне о болезни своего брата. (imperfective adverb)

    -Я читал письмо отца и думал о своих родителях.
    -Когда я читал письмо отца, я думал о своих родителях.
    -Читая письмо отца, я думал о своих родителях.(imperfective adverb)

    -Преподаватель объяснял новую тему и показывал опыты.
    -Когда преподаватель объяснял новую тему, он показывал опыты.
    -Преподаватель объяснял новую тему, показывая опыты.(imperfective adverb)

    Also Would like to know what is the imperfective adverb for the verb "пить". I just couldn't find it.

    Thank you for any kind of help.

    All your sentences are correct.

    The imperfective verbal adverb for the verb "пить" does not exist. For "есть" (to eat) it does not exist either.
    However, they exist for "поедать", "выпивать" etc.
