What antonym word is for separate?

join - a verb. Separate can be either a verb or adjective. Some other antonyms for the verb are unify and integrate. Unified and integrated, as well as joined, are antonyms for the adjective. Separate can also be used as a noun in the sense that an article of clothing is a separate, or an article, once published in a collection, and now published on its own, is a separate. When using it as an adjective, it could best be visualized as standing apart, or in being different. Examples would be 'the younger children were a separate grouping for meals', or 'the house had a separate garage while the house next to it had an attached garage'. As a verb, it is easiest to see this word used as a figure of speech in phrases like 'separate the wheat from the chaff' or if used in the severing of a relationship, as in 'the friends were separated after the argument'.

Is the word they're a verb or an adverb?

It is not an adverb, as "they" does not modify the verb "are". "Are" is also an auxiliary verb, so I would say "they're" doesn't strictly qualify as a verb. Remember when dealing with contractions to separate out the words as it makes it much easier to analyse each part. "They" is a pronoun and "are" is a verb.
