We learned all about verbs, a verb is a word used to describe action, which is used to form the main part of a sentence. The four types of nouns are common nouns, proper nouns, concrete nouns and last but not least, abstract nouns. Common nouns are nouns which name general persons, places, animals or things. On the other hand, proper nouns name specific persons places animals or things. A concrete noun is a any noun that can be perceived by the five senses and can also can be weighed or measured. An abstract noun that names a felling or emotion, a noun that can’t be perceived by the five feelings

There are three types of verbs. They are action verbs like swim or dance. There are also helping verbs like may, be, or am. There are also linking verbs like is, or were.
