Which ones of the given words are not the adverbs:-

A. Already
B. Greedy
C. Certainly
D. Scarce
E. often

Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

B and D only

The correct answer is Option (3) - B and D only:

Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs and often answer questions like how, when, where, or to what extent.

• A. Already  (Adverb – indicates time: "She has already left.")
• B. Greedy  (Adjective – describes a noun: "He is a greedy person.")
• C. Certainly  (Adverb – expresses certainty: "She will certainly come.")
• D. Scarce  (Adjective – describes a noun: "Water is scarce in the desert.")
• E. Often  (Adverb – indicates frequency: "She often visits her grandparents.")

Thus, B (Greedy) and D (Scarce) are not adverbs, making the correct answer "B and D only."
