Verbs

What is a verb?

A verb is one of the main parts of a sentence or question in English.
In fact, you can’t have a sentence or a question without a verb! That’s how important these “action” parts of speech are.

The verb signals an action, an occurrence, or a state of being. Whether mental, physical, or mechanical, verbs always express activity.

Example:

• Let’s run to the corner and back.
• I hear the train coming.
• Call me when you’re finished with class.
• I know the answer.
• She recognized me from across the room.
• Do you believe everything people tell you?
• I am a student.
• We are circus performers.
• Please is quiet.
