What are Verbs and Adverbs? What is the differnece?

Verbs are action words that describe an action, state, or occurrence. Examples: walk, run, think, speak, eat.

Adverbs are words that describe or modify a verb, an adjective, another adverb, or a sentence. Examples: quickly, slowly, dangerously, quietly.

The difference between a verb and an adverb is that a verb is an action while an adverb describes the action.

For example: "Jake walked" is a verb while "Jake walked quickly" is a verb plus an adverb.

Verbs can also be used to describe a state of being such as: "The dog is sleeping".

Adverbs can be used to modify adjectives such as: "The dog is extremely tired".

Verbs and adverbs can also be used to create adverbial clauses, which are phrases that modify the verb in a sentence. An example of this is: "Although Jake walked quickly, he was still late".
