No. It is an adjective.An adverb is a descriptive word that modifies a verb. 'Unfamiliar' does not modify a verb (e.g. the sentence "Dave unfamiliar glanced at Karen, who scowled" does not make sense, because 'unfamiliar' isn't an adverb), and therefore is not an adverb. In a sentence that uses 'unfamiliar': "Dave gave Karen an unfamiliar glance," 'unfamiliar' is modifying 'glance,' a noun, not 'gave,' the verb. Therefore, one may conclude that 'unfamiliar' is an adjective, not an adverb.
The word 'unfamiliar' is an adjective, a word used to describe a noun.I can give you several sentences.That word is unfamiliar to me.I heard an unfamiliar noise.He is unfamiliar to me.
