This document summarizes the three main types of verbs in English: action verbs, helping/auxiliary verbs, and linking verbs. It provides examples for each type. Action verbs express actions like "arrive" and "bring." Helping verbs help describe when an action occurs, such as "am," "are," and "will." Linking verbs link subjects to complements that identify or describe them, exemplified by "taste" and "is."
