More adverb

Sir,

1.He is far better now.

Words in bold letters are adverbs. Am I right?

2.You can only guess.

"only" here works as an adverb,but what kind?

Thanks.

Nothing is in bold, Hanuman, but 'far' and 'now' are adverbs in (1). In (2), I suppose offhand that 'only' is a simple limiting adverb.
