Adverb and Adjective Examples for Homework
Hi Mr., my son Alex has this English assignment on adjectives and adverbs, but he’s not quite getting how to use them properly. The textbook examples are a bit confusing for him. Do you have any tips or simple examples that might help clear things up?

Hello, Matrio_Doll! Here’s an example that illustrates the difference between adjectives and adverbs:
- Adjective: She is a quick runner.
- The word "quick" describes the noun "runner." It tells us what kind of runner she is, so "quick" is an adjective.
- Adverb: She runs quickly.
- The word "quickly" describes the verb "runs." It tells us how she runs, so "quickly" is an adverb.
In summary, adjectives describe nouns (people, places, things), while adverbs describe verbs (actions), adjectives, or other adverbs.
I hope this helps!
