These are adjectives, and these, are adverbs! adverbs! and a lot of these guys
are tricky for native speakers like me, as well! so let's start by understanding
how to use them, and then we will look at the tricksters! so if you like these

anyways, so adjectives! what are adjectives? an adjective describes or
modifies a noun or pronoun. they tell us color, size, shape, opinion, age, material,
observation, and purpose! some adjectives, like friendly costly and deadly, end in
-ly. -ly endings are more characteristic of adverbs. a lot of adverbs end in -ly, but
these adjectives are not adverbs! let me show you some common adjectives. there's
a big car next to the blue house that is located in a great city. these adjectives
are describing the car, the house, and the city. size, color and importance. sometimes,
though much less frequently, you will see adjectives that are nouns. I put it on
the coffee table. here coffee is a noun, but it's working as an adjective to tell
us what type of ??? to tell us what type of table. the purpose of the table. good
and bad are also adjectives. we use adjectives after sense verbs and to be
verbs. so we feel good or bad. we look good or bad. we smell good or bad. Yeah it's good. It's good, don't worry :D
and we are good or bad. very very very often native speakers use this
incorrectly! and we say that we feel well or we feel badly. It's grammatically
incorrect, but it's okay for conversational English. I'm going to give
you some adjectives that you might have confused with the adverb, right now we're
going to define the adjective and it's use and then once we get to adverbs we
will describe the adverbially usage usage. hard. hard is an adjective. It has
two meanings 1) solid or firm and the other meaning 2) means difficult, requiring a lot
of effort. I baked the cake too long and now it's hard. this homework is too hard.
sure. sure is an adjective. it means positive, certain. I am sure that after
the adverb example you will understand the difference. near. near can be an
active, verb, preposition and adverb! as an adjective, it talks about the distance
between physical things, and more commonly, moments in time! I will see you
in the near future. all right, now let's move on to adverbs. an adverb can
describe or modify the adjectives that we were just talking about, as well as
verbs and other adverbs. to describe an adjective: she was a very nice lady.
how nice? very nice! to describe a verb: he quickly ran to the store. how did he run?
quickly! and to describe another adverb: the
concert ended too quickly. how quickly? too quickly!
the most common mistake, so common that it's acceptable in conversational, spoken
English, is to use good instead of well. but try really try to remember that with
action verbs it sounds better to use well. verbs like play live and do. Monfils
plays tennis very well. we live well thanks to our jobs. you need to do well
on the exam. the same with badly, we often confuse the usage here. badly most often
refers to the skill with which you do something, how well you do it. he plays
basketball very badly. though in spoken English, it can be incorrectly used to
describe how you feel, especially after doing something bad! he feels badly for
yelling at you like that. hardly. the adverb hardly is very
different from the adjective hard. hardly means barely, slightly. he hardly
has a chance of winning the game. you hardly started, why are you quitting now?
surely. the adverb surely's meaning is not that different from the adjective,
but when we use it is quite different. we need to use it when describing an action.
before, I told you I'm sure you will understand the difference. I was very
confident when I said that. so you could say that I told you that surely. here,
surely is describing how I told you, not how I felt. and nearly. nearly most often
means almost, but not quite. almost, but not enough! what a game, they nearly won
but lost in the last minute of overtime! we're nearly there. and now as a bonus
let's talk about flat adverbs. because we have a choice sometimes to use adverbs
that end in the -ly or not! and me personally, I like the sound of these
flat adverbs when we can use them. for example, slow or slowly. bright/brightly.
safe/safely. they're all adverbs and it's your choice
which one you want to use. sometimes though, they're not perfect synonyms and
there's a great video that will explain all of this stuff about flat adverbs
