Choose between adjectives and adverbs
Key Notes :
🌟 Choose Between Adjectives and Adverbs 🌟
| What is an Adjective? |
🖍 Adjectives describe a noun (a person, place, or thing).
They tell what kind, which one, or how many.
Examples:
- The 🍎 red apple is sweet.
- She has a 🐶 cute puppy.
- I have three 🎈 balloons.
Tip: Adjectives answer “What kind?” or “Which one?”
| What is an Adverb? |
🏃♂️ Adverbs describe a verb, an adjective, or another adverb.
They tell how, when, where, or how much.
Examples:
- She runs 🏃♀️ fast.
- He sings 🎤 beautifully.
- The cat sleeps 😴 quietly.
Tip: Adverbs often end in -ly (but not always!)
| How to Choose Between Adjective and Adverb? |
| Question to ask | Use… | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Are you describing a noun? | Adjective | The 🎨 colorful painting is nice. |
| Are you describing a verb? | Adverb | She draws 🖌 quickly. |
| Are you describing another adverb or adjective? | Adverb | He runs very 🏃♂️ fast. |
