The definition of an adverb is words and phrases that describe or limit the meaning of a verb, an adjective,or a whole sentence. Adverbs answer the questions when, where, why, in what manner, or to what extent. An adverb is a adjective (usually ending in "ly"), that describes a verb. E.g: The boy ran Swiftly.

An adverb is a word that modifies or enhances a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. ie: "The animal ferociouslyattacked" (modifies the verb 'attack'), "This is particularly difficult" (modifies the adjective 'difficult'), "The fly moved incredibly quickly" (modifies the adverb 'quickly', which modifies the verb 'move').
