how to defferntiate between the adjectives and the adverbs:

What can you remember about the difference between adjectives and adverbs? Here’s a quick reminder:

An adjective describes a noun or pronoun: “That boy is so loud!”

An adverb describes a verb or anything apart from a noun and pronoun: “That boy speaks soloudly!”

Adverbs are used to answer how questions e.g. “How does he talk? – He talks loudly.”

Flowers smell sweet or flowers smell sweetly, which is correct? Smell sweet is correct because we it describes the smell of flowers. Smell sweetly tells how a rose smells i.e. flowers do not have noses so they cannot smell!!

“Fresh bread smells great” (adjective) – I am describinng my opinion on fresh bread

“I smell terribly because I have a cold” (adverb) – I am not able to use my nose to smell things because of my cold.
