who answered " an adverb" should bear this in his mind....not all adverbs end with an "ly"
& in this case "lovely" is defo an adjective even tho it ends with an "ly" !!! Other adjs may end with "ing" or "ed" !

Surely it can function as both?

You could have a 'lovely flower' or 'lovely dancing'. I chose adjective, but only because there's no option for both.

Not because it end in "ly" it is an adverb. For example, the adjective "fried" is an adjective and not a verb. Or "comforting" it is an adjective ending in "ing". The Gender not only is for the Present Continuous Tense that it is also for adjectives (boring) and activity verbs(writing is my favourite hobby).
