In this discussion, I have learned the differences between an adverb and an adjectives. Basically, we use adjectives together with a noun or a pronoun. On the other hand, we typically use an adverb together with a verb and an adverb. It is actually easy to recognize because it usually ends in -ly. 

Below is an example sentence: 

The handsome boy was walking quickly yesterday. 

The - Article 

handsome - Adjective (it describes the noun) 

boy - Noun (common noun) 

Walking - Verb (action)

was - Verb (describe the state of being)

quickly - Adverb (specifically, adverb of manner)

yesterday - Adverb (specifically, adverb of time. It tells when the action of verb takes place)
