Study the information about focus adverbs.

1. We can change the position of adverbs like even, just, simply, only. It depends on where we want to focus our attention.

Even I understand this rule.
I even understood his speech.
 
2. We often put these adverbs before the verb and other people can understand when we mean from stress and intonation:

He only asked a question about this topic.
