Types Of Verbs
There are two types of verbs:
- Action verbs
- Stative verbs
In the examples we gave earlier, the verbs such as eat, walk and jump tell us about the action. They are therefore referred to as Action Verbs.
Stative Verbs express a state of being. They include is, am, are, etcetera.
For Example:
- He is a boy
- She is a girl
The above examples express the state of being male (a boy) or female (girl) using the verb “is”.
The above sentences express the state of being sick or fine using the verbs “am” and “are”.
