Verb Tense A verb can show the time of its action. Present Past Future Eg. study, laugh, enjoy, eat, go Past Eg. studied, laughed, enjoyed, ate, went Future Eg. will study, will laugh, shall enjoy, shall eat, will go

Without verbs, there is no action in the sentence.

One writer’s thoughts on verbs… “If you write you tend to use a lot of them… He ran off. He dashed off. He raced off. He careened away. He jolted away. He hurtled off. …it’s very cool how a single word can increase or decrease intensity.” Which of the above verbs do you find most interesting?
