Adverbs are words that modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, providing more detail about how, when, where, why, or to what extent something happens. They can describe manner (how), time (when), place (where), frequency (how often), or degree (to what extent).
For example:
- **Manner**: She sings **beautifully** (how she sings).
- **Time**: He will arrive **tomorrow** (when he will arrive).
- **Place**: They looked **everywhere** (where they looked).
- **Frequency**: She **often** visits her grandmother (how often she visits).
- **Degree**: He is **very** tall (to what extent he is tall).
Adverbs often end in -ly, but not exclusively; for example, "fast," "well," and "very" are also adverbs.
