What Is an Adverb?
2. Quickly
The word “quickly” is perhaps one of the most common used adverbs of all. One example of its usage is “he quickly finished his dinner,” clearly describing how the person finished eating faster than they otherwise would. It helps to portray how somebody is in a rush, perhaps because they need to be somewhere else or they are avoiding another person.

The word can also be used as a command. In telling people to “do it quickly,” you are giving a clear order that they should do it in the least amount of time as possible. Some people might find it rude to be told to be quick, but it may sometimes be necessary.
