Explanation:
-
Adjectives describe nouns, while
adverbs describe verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs.
- To convert an adjective to an adverb, we typically add "-ly" to the end of the adjective (e.g., *happy* → *happily*).
- For
comparative forms, we use "more" or "-er" (e.g., *happy* → *happier* or *more happily*).
- For
superlative forms, we use "most" or "-est" (e.g., *happy* → *happiest* or *most happily*).
