Adverbs
An adverb describes a verb, an adjective  or another adverb. It tells how, where, why, when, how much, and with what frequency. 

Verb - Is most probably important to use in a speech because you can have a sentence or question without a verb. | Shows an action or state of being, we changed the form of verb to talk about different times so verbs are pretty important.
Example:
I walk to school everyday. - shows a physical action.
Ryle went to the supermarket. - again showing a physical action.
I am a teacher. - am is the verb in this one.
You are a student. - are is a verb in this one.
 Did you notice the first two ( walk & went ) shows a physical action in the last two ( am & are ) shows a state of being. Don't involve physical action they show situations.
