Problem Description:

The task is to identify and mark adverbs and adjectives in the given table. Adverbs are words that describe verbs (actions), while adjectives are words that describe nouns (people, places, or things). The instructions specify to circle the adverbs and underline the adjectives, while skipping verbs and nouns.

Solution Approach:

1. Identify Adverbs: Adverbs typically answer questions like "how," "when," "where," or "to what extent." They often end in "-ly" but not always.
2. Identify Adjectives: Adjectives describe nouns and answer questions like "what kind," "which one," or "how many."
3. Skip Verbs and Nouns: Verbs are action words, and nouns are names of people, places, things, or ideas. These should not be circled or underlined.
