For me,

Slowly is a term used to prove how the subject did something.(adverb)

Example: She walked slowly.

Slow is a term used as adjective.

Example: She is a slow girl. :)

I am not really good at giving answers like this, but i hope it helped. :)

________________________________________

Slow is an adjective, slowly is an adverb.

Adjectives describe what something is like, e.g. blue, big, slow.

Adverbs describe how something was done, e.g. he landed gracefully, he walked slowly.

________________________________________

Adjectives (slow) modify a noun; "A snail(noun) is slow", "She(noun) is slow at eating", "He(noun) is slow at dressing for school"

Adverbs (slowly) modify a verb; "A snail travels(verb) slowly", "She ate(verb) slowly", "He slowly(verb) dresses for school"
