The word "hasty" is never a verb. The noun is haste and the verb is to hasten.

Deliberate and hasty as adjectives:

"The change in location was a deliberate choice by the board, although they may have been too hasty in their decision."

Hasty as an adjective and deliberate (consider, discuss, examine) as a verb:

"The jury decided to deliberate rather than reach a hasty verdict."

Which statement is true about this sentence Few Americans speak fluent French?

few" is an adjective. Yes, it is, because it modifies the noun (the noun, in your sentence, being "American".) "Americans" is the subject, because in the sentence, they're the ones doing the action, aren't they? "speak" is the verb, what is being done in that sentence…(what's being done by the subject: Americans) "fluent" is also an adjective. So the answer is not A because there is two adjectives, two words modifying the next word (few, modifying Americans and fluent, modifying French). This is a trick answer for people wondering if "few" is an adjective. The answer is not B either because we already know there're two adjectives. The answer is not C because the verb "speak" could not be an adjective. The answer D is the right one because an adjective is modifying both the subject and the object but it is again a trick question because it seems to imply that it is the same adjective when it's not: the adjective "few" is modifying the subject "Americans" and the adjective "fluent" is modifying the object "French". So the subject and the object are both modified by an adjective (just not the same one…).
