An adverb is a word that modifies or describes another word such as a verb, adjective, or sentence. There are several types of adverbs including time, place, manner, interrogative, and frequency. Adverbs of time indicate when an action occurs such as "soon" or "weekly." Place adverbs show location like "below" or "between." Manner adverbs characterize behavior as in "tactfully" or "gracefully." Interrogative adverbs like "why" and "where" are used to start questions. Frequency adverbs specify how often an action happens, for example "often" or "never."
3. An adverb is a word that modifies or
describes another word, such as an adjective
(he sings loudly), a verb (ended too fast), or
even a whole sentence (Fortunately, I had
brought an umbrella). Although many
adverbs finish in -ly, some, like swift, appear
exactly like their adjective equivalents.

Dictionary.

8. Adverb of Place
What Is a Place Adverb? Adverbs of place are adverbs
that are used in a sentence to indicate a specific
location or the scene of an activity. They respond to the
where query. They are typically seen in sentences after
the primary verb or the object.
Example
9. : Minutes, miles, or kilometers apart. An object's
position in respect to another item can be
expressed using a place adverb. For instance,
"below," "between," "above," "behind," "through,"
"around," etc. Numerous adverbs of place that
finish in "-ward or -wards" denote movement in a
certain direction.

12. Interrogative Adverb
The interrogative adverbs why, where, how, & when are
placed at the beginning of a question. These questions
can be answered with a sentence or a prepositional
phrase. After an interrogative adverb in a question, you
must invert the subject and verb so that the verb
comes first.
Example
13. At the start of an inquiry, the interrogative
adverbs why, where, how, and when are used.
An entire sentence or a prepositional phrase
can be used to respond to these queries.
14. Adverb of Frequency
An adverb of frequency describes how often an action
happens. There are six main adverbs of frequency that
we use in English: always, usually (or normally), often,
sometimes, rarely, and never.
Examples
15. Often, seldom, rarely, every now and then,
hardly ever, sometimes, never, always,
occasionally, eventually, etc. are some
examples of adverbs of frequency.
