The verb is perhaps the most important part of
the sentences. A verb
or compound verb asserts something
about the subject of the sentences and express actions, events or states of
being. The verb or compound verb is the critical element of the predicate of a
sentences.
Verbs are necessary component of all sentences.
Verbs have two important functions: some verbs put static object in into motion
while other verbs help to clarify the object in meaningful ways. Look at the
examples below.
1.
My grumpy old teacher smiles at my
essay.
My grumpy old teacher= static
object: smiled= verb.
2.
The daredevil cockroach splashed
into Sara’s soup.
The
daredevil cockroach = static object; splashed= verb.
Examples:
The girl plays football.
The verb plays
describes the girl’s action.
Vinita will sing at the show tonight.
Here the compound
verb will sing describes an action that will take places in the future.
