To determine whether a word is an adjective or an adverb, we need to look at its function in a sentence and its relationship to other words.
1. Adjectives modify nouns or pronouns and answer questions like "what kind?" or "which one?". In the example above, the underlined words (**personal**, **financial**, **monthly**, **good**) are all adjectives as they describe or specify the noun they are modifying.
2. Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs and answer questions like "how?", "when?", "where?", "to what extent?". In the example above, the bolded words (**very**, **carefully**, **crucially**, **thoroughly**, **smartly**, **wisely**, **promptly**, **regularly**, **actively**, **highly**) are all adverbs as they describe the verb or add more information about its manner, timing, frequency, or degree.
