Adverbs are the word that modifies the meaning of a verb, an adjective or another adverb. They tell us about how much, in what manner, how far, in what degree and to what extent. E.g. all, very, probably, very, etc.
- Example: She learns quickly.
Adjectives are the words that add meaning to the nouns or pronouns. They simply make noun and pronoun more descriptive. E.g. beautiful, honest, brave, wealthy.
- Example: She is a quick learner.
