Ending in ly doesn't make a word and adverb.

Although 'lively' and 'stately' looks like adverbs, they're really adjectives. Adjectives can modify nouns as in your phrases. Quietly is an adverb and iy rightly modify the verb advancing in your sentence.

The shortage of coal internationally is the problem. (here the adverb 'internationally ' modifies the noun 'shortage'

@Noyi no it doesn't. the sentence is not technically correct. it should read "the international shortage of coal," not "the shortage of coal internationally," in which "internationally" modifies "is" -- which is an inaccurate way to phrase it. incorrect sentences don't count as examples of how something can be done correctly lol.

@genessa
Such sentences are correct. Grammarians like Randolph Quirk, Greenbaum and Geoffrey Leech are of the view that with constraints adverb postmodification of noun is possible

@Noyi they are certainly entitled to their opinions, if indeed those are their opinions and not being misinterpreted. assuming they are, they are entitled at any rate.

Why do you think internationally is an adverb?

@skado
Dictionaries label it as an adverb

@Noyi
My guess is that the adverb "internationally" modifies the implied verb, "exists".
The shortage of coal (that exists) internationally is the problem.

'Yesterday' is not an adjective, it's always sm adverb

Not sm but an. It was a typo
