Presentation transcript:

Types of Verbs Action verbs:  Action verbs can express physical or mental activities. These are things that can be done. Physical actions:  These are actions that can be observed or seen.  Has, have, and had= action verbs if they tell that a subject owns/holds something. Examples: talk, act, drive, run, search Sample sentences with physical action verbs: 1.The lights flashed above the stage. 2.The actors already have their costumes. (shows physical ownership)

Mental Actions:  These are actions that cannot be observed or witnessed. Examples: think, dream, remember, hope, believe Sample sentences with mental action verbs: 1.Derek imagined he was at the beach. 2.During the presentation, Ann daydreamed about her upcoming vacation. *Action verbs that have a preposition in front of them are considered infinitive phrases: to help or to build

Linking Verbs  These types of verbs do not express any action.  They help to link or connect the subject with a noun or adjective that describes the subject. These are referred to as predicate nouns or predicate adjectives. Sample sentences using linking verbs: (lv) (pa) 1. John Smith was calm during the debate. (lv) (pn) 2. Jane is the captain of the soccer team.  There are many verbs that can switch between action or linking. Action: She felt the baby’s forehead. (physical action) Linking: Tom felt sick after football practice. (description/condition)

Helping Verbs  These verbs help to express the main verb(an action) in the sentence. These become known as verb phrases.  Many of the linking verbs can become helping verbs, but when it is used as a helping verb there must be a main verb with it.  Do not include any words that separate the verb phrase. (hv) (m/av) Examples: The food will be tasted by the restaurant critics. (hv) (m/av) Intense fires have deteriorated the land. (hv) (m/av) We should not go to the concert without our parents’ permission.
