EnglishWord Classes
- AAdjective
- Badverb
- CVerb
- DConjunction
Explanation
‘Better’ here modifies the verb ‘sings’ — it tells how she sings — so it functions as an adverb (comparative adverb). It does not modify a noun (which would make it an adjective), and it is not itself a verb or a conjunction. Hence the word class is adverb.
