A verb A word that describes an action (read, walk) or an occurrence (happen, become) or indicates a state of being (is, exist)

Action Verbs Tells what action (mental or physical) someone or something is performing

Transitive Action verbs The action of the verb transfers directly to the receiver of the action, the direct object. The receiver is in the sentence. Jason bought the car. action verb direct object Ask the question: _______what? Or _______ who? verb verb If the question is answered, the verb is transitive.

Intransitive Action verbs The receiver of the action is not named in the sentence. adverb prepositional phrase Jason bought continually at the sale. action verb no direct object The sentence doesn’t tell us what Jason bought. Ask the question: _______what? Or _______ who? verb verb If the question is NOT answered, the verb is intransitive. Note: Subjects, verbs, and direct objects are never in prepositional phrases.

Transitive or Intransitive Differing opinions drove the North and South apart. The North and the South grew farther apart. The North fought continually for a central government. The North developed an industrialized economy that was not dependent on slavery. Northerners believed in government help for citizens. Southerners used slaves to work their cotton plantations.

Transitive or Intransitive A strong central government would also interfere with slavery. Some people thought the issues unresolvable. The Southern states used slaves to support their economy. The North’s trading and financial interests benefited from a strong central government. Neither the North nor the South dominated in the Senate. Most Northerners believed slavery immoral.

Transitive or Intransitive Few Northerners, however, strongly opposed slavery. Other territories struggled over the question of being “free” or “slave.” Southerners rejected Lincoln’s position on slavery. The North supported Lincoln in his fight to end slavery. The North and South prepared for war.

Linking Verbs

Linking verbs Linking verbs do not show action A linking verb connects/links the subject with a word that— describes or identifies the subject. (predicate adjective) (predicate noun) Bill sounds strong. Bill is a cyclist. If you can substitute am, is, or are (or any “be” verb) for the verb, it is likely a linking verb.

Common Linking Verbs Be verbs –is –are –was –were –am –being –been –be Linking verbs (most may also be used as action verbs) –appear –look –sound –taste –smell –feel – grow – seem – become – remain – stay – turn

Helping Verbs Be verbs (if followed by a main verb) –is –are –was –were –am –been –be Other helping verbs –do –does –did –has –have –had – can – could – may – might – must Helping verbs usually precede (come before) the main verb. The main verb is the last verb in the verb phrase. Present participles (-ing verbs) that function as main verbs, must have helping verbs. Adverbs sometimes interrupt the verb phrase. – shall – should – will – would
