VERB

Verb is a word which serves to indicate the action of the subject to events or circumstances

The verb is maybe the most important part of the sentence. A verb or compound verb asserts something about the subject of the sentence and express actions, events, or states of being. The verb or compound verb is the critical element of the predicate of a sentence.

Type Of Verb

Auxiliary Verb

Auxiliary, or help verb, are used before infinitives to add a different meaning,. For example, you use auxiliary verb to say :

v  That someone is able to do something

v  That someone is allowed to do something

v  That someone has to do something

The hellping verbs are can, could, would, should, ought to, will, shall, may, might, and must

The primary auxiliaries are be, have, and do. The modal auxiliaries include can, could, may, must, should, will, and would.

Lexical Verb

Lexical Verbs are basically the main verb‏‎ in a sentence. They carry some kind of real-world meaning and are sometimes actually known as the main verb:

·         You laughed.

·         I ran.

·         She danced in public.

·         He googled my question to know the answer.

They are basically an open-class of verbs; in other words, we can add new verbs to this class‏‎. In recent years new additions to this class include:

·         She twerked in public.

·         I googled my answer.

So lexical verbs carry a semantic meaning. The only verbs not classed as lexical are auxiliary verbs‏‎, be, do, should, can, etc. These auxiliary verbs have a grammatical meaning (they talk about modality, voice, etc).

Using Lexical Verbs

1.      Simple tenses use only a lexical verb:

{subject} + {lexical verb}

·         I run.

·         I walked.

·         I laughed.

·         I tried.

2.      Continuous or Perfect tenses use an auxiliary verb and a lexical verb.

{subject} + {auxiliary verb } + {lexical verb}

·         I had run.

·         I was walking.

In other words, a lexical verb can sit on its own but an auxiliary verb requires a lexical verb for it to make sense:

·         She will in the garden.

·         She will sit in the garden.

Dynamic verb and stative verb

Definition of dynamic verb is a verb to assert that the subject was doing the activity, process or a short duration of action is going on.

Example : eat, play, call, drink, listen, work.

Definition of stative verb is verb that express emotion or condition (or inclined) to change, or can be interpreted abstract verb

Example : love, like, mean, feel, desire, see smell, know, hear, taste.

A regular verb and An irregular verb

A regular verb : forms its past tense and past participle by adding -d or -ed (or in some cases -t)

Example : 

Have you studied yet ?
We always check our assignment before we put it on the teacher's table
My mom cooks a deliciuos food for us

An irregular verb (also known as a strong verb) doesn't form the past tense by adding -d or -ed:

Example :

I go to bed when i feel so sleepy
I'll run away from you all
Doctor said that we must eat a healty food

Transitive and Intransitive

Transitive verbs are action verbs that have an object to receive that action. In the first sentence above, the direct object ball received the action of the verb hit.

Example:

I baked some cookies.

I rode the bicycle.

I moved the chair.

I stitched a quilt.

Intransitive verbs are action verbs but unlike transitive verbs, they do not have an object receiving the action. Notice there are no words after the verb sang.

More examples of intransitive verbs:

I laughed.

I cried.

The book fell.

The horse galloped.

The sun set.

Predicating of Linking Verb

In traditional grammars and guide books, the term linking verb is used to refer to verbs that describe the subject by connecting it to a predicate adjective or predicate noun (collective known as subject complements). Unlike the majority of verbs, they do not describe any direct action taken or controlled by the subject.

The following verbs are true linking verbs :

any form of the verb be [am, is, are, was, were, has been, are being, might have been, etc.], become, and seem. These true linking verbs are always linking verbs.

Then you have a list of verbs that can be linking or action: appear, feel, grow, look, prove, remain, smell, sound, taste, and turn. If you can substitute any of the verbs on this second list with an equal sign [=] and the sentence still makes sense, the verb is almost always linking.

Read these examples:

·         Brandon is a gifted athlete.

Brandon = subject; is = linking verb; athlete = noun as subject complement.

·         It was he who caught the winning touchdown Friday night.

It = subject; was = linking verb; he = pronoun as subject complement.

·         Brandon becomes embarrassed when people compliment his skill.

Brandon = subject; becomes = linking verb; embarrassed = adjective as subject complement.

·         Brandon's face will turn red.

Face = subject; will turn = linking verb; red = adjective as subject complement. [Will turn is linking because if you substitute this verb with an equal sign, the sentence still makes sense.]

Don't mistake a subject complement for a direct object.

Only linking verbs can have subject complements. If the verb is action, then the word that answers the question what? or who? after the subject + verb is a direct object.

·         When Michelle woke up this morning, she felt sick.
