In a typical sentence, the subject (the one who performs the action) is usually a noun, and sometimes a pronoun. The action that the subject does is usually a verb. The boy ate his lunch. The doer of the action is "boy" and what action he did is "ate." But we can make the sentence more interesting by describing the noun-- which requires an adjective; or describing the verb-- which requires an adverb. So, the hungry boy ate his lunch quickly. Hungry is an adjective-- it tells us more about the boy. And quickly is an adverb, which tells us more about the verb.
