1. Tell me more about rice cake.
2. Tell me a lot about rice cake.

(What is the part of speech of 'more'? A noun or an adverb? Are both the same?)

Both are correct if you add an "s" to cake.

"More" is a noun in this sentence.

You can see how "more" is used in these definitions.

1. Tell me more about rice <b>cakes</b>.
2. Tell me a lot about rice <b>cakes</b>.

"A little" is a noun phrase. The articles, "a," "an,", "the" are like road signs that tell you that a noun is ahead.

3. is correct -- if you change "cake" to <b>cakes</b>.
