While many adverbs are formed by adding '-ly' to an adjective, some are irregular (like 'well') or look the same as adjectives (like 'fast'). They can usually be moved to different positions in a sentence without changing the basic meaning.
よくある間違い
Learners often use an adjective when an adverb is required, such as saying 'he runs quick' instead of 'he runs quickly'.
