I mean, I could just as easily have come to the conclusion that nouns and adjectives deserve close scrutiny with the following examples: Nancy yelled to express the anger she felt whenever someone questioned her. It's hilarious, incidentally, that she contrasts the adverb-involving sentence "Nancy yelled angrily ..." with a much fuller scene of several sentences containing dialogue between two characters. Big surprise that there are significant differences there. "Well, I guess if you had grown up with it, you would understand polo", Minx said. Minx was a snob. A dumping ground for what? Let me give you a hint, she replied as she doted on her wife. Did you get it yet, he responded, showing his zeal. ... looking at the article again, I think support for the contention that she doesn't know what she's talking about can be found in her description of "thanks so much" as involving an adverb that modifies an adjective.
