Yes, that's correct! An adverb is a part of speech that modifies verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. When modifying a verb, adverbs can provide more information about how, when, where, why, or to what extent an action is performed. For example:
- In the sentence "She runs quickly," the adverb "quickly" modifies the verb "runs" to describe how she runs.
- In "He will arrive soon," the adverb "soon" modifies the verb "arrive" to indicate when he will arrive.
Adverbs can also modify adjectives, as in "She is very talented," where "very" modifies the adjective "talented." Additionally, adverbs can modify other adverbs, such as in "He completed the task extremely quickly," where "extremely" modifies the adverb "quickly."
