Adverbs can modify verbs, adjectives, or adverbs, or a phrase or clause that acts as one of these.
Examples:
(verb) They ran quickly. See the doctor later. The cat jumped up.
(adjective) He is too tall. The task is incrediblydifficult.
(adverb) The cheetah can run very quickly.
* So-called 'sentential adverbs' modify a sentence, but do refer to the verb, often a linking verb.
(sentence) Luckily, the fall was not fatal. The result, sadly, was not what we expected.
