hello
usually a noun can not modify an adverb but can you think of an exception in English that a noun modifies an adverb?

Good morning, Maysam.
(1) Yes, occasionally a noun can, indeed, modify an adverb.
(2) When that happens, some books call that noun an adverbial objective.
(3) If you google under "adverbial objective," you will probably find many articles that can help you.
(4) I was able to find only two examples in my books:
(a) They worked all day long.
(i) "Day" is a noun that modifies the adverb "long." ("all" is an adjective that modifies the noun "day." )
(ii) We should have arrived an hour sooner.
(a) "hour" is a noun that modifies the adverb "sooner." ("an" is an
adjective that modifies the noun "hour.")
Have a nice day!

P. S. Some newer grammar books may NOT use the word "adjective" to describe the words "all" and "an."
