He still lives here. Here 'still' is?

1. Adjective
2. Adverb
3. Conjunction
4. None of these

The correct answer is “adverb.” The word “still” in this context is an adverb of time. It modifies the verb “lives” by indicating that the action (living here) continues up to the present time, often with an implication that this might be unexpected. It answers the question about the duration of the action. It is not an adjective, as it does not describe the noun “He.” It is also not a conjunction, as it does not connect words or clauses. Therefore, its function is adverbial, providing temporal context to the verb.
