Verb- a Part of Speech
A Verb is an action word.
A verb is an important part of speech.
We can’t get the proper meaning of the sentences without verbs.
Verbs are words that tell something about persons, places, or things.
It describes-
- An action
- State of being
- Occurrence
Verb- how it works
We shall take some sentences to see how the verb works in the sentence.
If we write the above sentences as-
- The boy an essay.
- She very beautiful.
These sentences don’t make complete sense but in the above sentences, we get a complete sense of the sentences because of the words ‘wrote’ and ‘is’
We can also call these words ‘action words’.
