Here's why:
* Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. They tell us how, when, where, or to what extent something happens.
* "Very" is used to intensify or emphasize the word it modifies. For example:
* "The food was very delicious." (modifies the adjective "delicious")
* "He ran very fast." (modifies the adverb "fast")
