refer to action. These can refer to physical
action that are performed with bodies or
object, such as jump, hit, or sing or mental
actions.

condition which is quite static or unchanging.
They can be divided into verbs of perception
or cognition (which refer to things in the
mind), or verbs of relation (which describe
the relationships between things).

"action verbs") usually describe actions we
can take, or things that happen.

In Above examples the is
dynamic verb these are shows an activity and
process as well.
8. Linking verbs are a special type of Stative
verb whose name give a big clue as to what
they do. Linking verbs are used to link a
subject with a subject complement. A subject
complement describe or identifies the subject
of sentence or clause.
Examples:

9. A transitive verb is one that is used with an
object: a noun phrase, or pronoun that refers
to the person or thing that is affected by the
action of the verb.
Examples:
He a delicious pizza.
He really broccoli.
10. An intransitive verb does not have an object.
Examples:

The children while the adults worked.

sessions as finals drew near.
11. Finite verbs which has a subject and shows
tense. Every sentence needs finite verb.
Examples:
I dinner last Friday.
Ahmad a teacher.
Our study group really late last
night.
12. Non-finite verbs are verbs that do not
describe a verb, not showing tense or verbs
which are not acting like a verb. They work as
adjective , gerund and adverbs in the
sentences.
Examples:
It is dangerous on this slippery
road.
We are ready now.
I have completed the task.
13. When the verb is active, the subject of the
verb is doing the action.
Examples:
Ahmad Ali.
We are to watch a movie tonight.
Painter the entire house.
14. When the verb is passive, the subject
undergoes the action rather than doing it.
Examples:
Ali is by Ahmad.
A movie is to be watched by us
tonight.
The entire house was by painter.
15. Auxiliary verbs are so called because they
help to form the various tenses, moods, and
voices of other verbs. The principal ones are
be, do, and have. They are also called helping
verbs.
Examples:
The musician performed in concert all
over the world.
My cat getting slow in her old age.
Cheetahs run incredibly fast.
16. There is a further set of auxiliary verbs known
as modal verbs or modal auxiliary verbs.
These combine with other verbs to express
necessity, possibility, intention, or ability.
Example:
We carefully add two eggs to mixing
bowl.
I go to the movies if I wasn’t busy
working.
17. A phrasal verb is a verb that is made up of a
main verb together with an adverb or a
preposition, or both. Typically, their meaning
is not obvious from the meanings of the
individual words themselves.
Examples:
The frustrated business owner
his store.
Ahmad loves to his cricket
trophies.
18. Regular verbs form their past and past
participle forms by adding –ed.
Example:
He two miles to the post office.
We all of the supplies that we
for the camping trip.
19. An irregular verb is a verb whose past tense
and past participle form doesn’t end in –ed, -
d, and doesn’t use the –t, variant.
Examples:
Rehan all of the right answer.
The workers the furniture out of the
moving truck.
