Did you know that adjectives and adverbs are important parts of speech that describe nouns and verbs? Take a look at these sentences and see if you can find and fix any errors in the adjectives or adverbs: 1. Erica proudly showed her blue ribbon to her family. 2. A long, dark winter is drawing near. 3. Francie had an awful day today. For example, in the first sentence, "proudly" is an adverb that describes how Erica showed her ribbon. It is correctly placed here. However, in the second sentence, there are no errors. "Long" and "dark" are adjectives properly describing the noun "winter." Lastly, in the third sentence, "awful" is an adjective appropriately describing "day." Remember, using the right adjectives and adverbs can add depth and clarity to your writing!
