Adverb. Here’s a hint. Adverbs are usually close to the verb, adjective or another adverb it describes. In this case the verb is swim. Another hint, adverbs are commonly adjectives with “ly” added on to it. “Swift” would be an adjective, “swiftly” is the adverb counterpart.

adverb

Almost any word that ends in -ly is going to be an adverb; it describes the verb the way an adjective describes a noun

So, “swimming swiftly” — adverb

But “swift swimmer” — adjective
