Adjectives and adverbs are essential parts of speech that enrich language by providing description and detail.
Adjectives modify nouns and pronouns, giving information about qualities, quantities, or states,
while adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, often expressing manner, time, place, or degree.
Their correct use enhances clarity, precision, and expressiveness in communication. Understanding the roles and forms of
adjectives and adverbs is fundamental in grammar, as they not only refine meaning but also allow speakers and writers
to convey nuanced ideas effectively.
