Verbs are action words that describe what the subject is doing and are the main part of a sentence, conveying thoughts and stories about what is taking place. Without a verb, full thoughts cannot be properly expressed, even in simple sentences. Verbs come in past, present, and future tenses, with the present tense describing current actions and the past tense referring to completed actions that occurred at some point in the past, whether regularly or in quick succession. Verbs can also be regular or irregular, with regular verbs forming the past tense by adding "-ed" and irregular verbs changing their spelling or form in various ways.

words.

Ran, eats, gallop, went and write are the ‘action’ parts of those
sentences, thus they are the verbs.

describe action happening right now.
