    Adverbs provide additional information about verbs, such as how, when, or where an action occurs. They are often formed by adding "-ly" to adjectives. Some common adverb types include manner adverbs that describe how something is done, temporal adverbs that indicate when something occurs, and place adverbs that specify location. Adverbs are also compared using comparative and superlative forms, with "-er" and "-est" endings respectively.
