"Ly" is typically used to form adverbs, which modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. For example:
* Verb: "He ran quickly." ("Quickly" is an adverb modifying the verb "ran".)
Verbs themselves have a wide range of endings depending on their tense, person, and number. Here are some examples:
* Present tense: "walk", "run", "sing", "eat"
* Past tense: "walked", "ran", "sang", "ate"
* Future tense: "will walk", "will run", "will sing", "will eat"
It's important to distinguish between adverbs and verbs to understand how words function in a sentence.
