I read the definition for the noun 雑用.

> いろいろのこまごまとした用事。

I understand that the と particle here is modifying the verb する. So my question
is if parsing the sentence like this is correct:

> ((いろいろのこまごま)と(した))(用事)。

My question is what type of adverb would いろいろのこまごま be? Maybe my parsing of the
sentence is wrong?

Question about adverbs taking と
It's parsed like `いろいろの(こまごまとした用事)`.

[こまごま(と)](https://jisho.org/word/%E7%B4%B0%E3%80%85) is an _adverb_ , and thus
it cannot be directly modified by いろいろの ("various"). いろいろのこまごま makes no sense
when isolated like this. Here, こまごまとした modifies 用事 first, forming a noun
phrase:

  * 用事 things to do
  * こまごまとした用事 miscellaneous things to do

Check this question to see what this とした is doing: [Meaning of (と)した in
