No, they are not the same.

An adverb modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb (as how?, where?, when?, how often?, how much?). Examples:

  • He ran quickly when he saw the bus coming. (The adverb quickly modifies the verb ran.)
  • It was a very early bus. (The adverb very modifies the adjective early.)
  • She walked so slowly that she missed the bus. (The adverb so modifies the adverbslowly.)

A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence. Examples:

  • I made the cake. (The pronoun I takes the place of a noun such as my name, the noun mother, friend, etc.)
  • John likes cake, it is his favorite treat. (The pronoun it takes the place of the noun cake in the second part of the sentence.)
  • Don't give cake to the dog, it will make him sick. (The pronoun him takes the place of the noun dog in the second part of the sentence.)
  • Would you like some cake? (The pronoun you takes the place of a noun such as your name, the noun sister, teacher, etc.)
