The most common ones are: 1) Verbs that express thoughts and opinions: believe, forget, guess, know, mean, remember, seem, think (=believe), understand. 2) Verbs that express likes or preferences / feelings and emotions: dislike, hate, hope, like, love, prefer, want. 3) Verbs that express state or possession: be, belong, have (got), own. 4) Verbs that express cost and measure: cost, weigh, measure. 5) Verbs that express perception and senses: feel, hear, see, smell, sound, taste, touch.

REMEMBER!!! Some STATIVE VERBS can be used both in the Present Simple and the Present Continuous, but their meanings are different: PRESENT SIMPLEPRESENT CONTINUOUS LOOK (= parecer)LOOK (= mirar) TASTE (= saber bien)TASTE (= probar) FEEL (= sentirse)FEEL (= tocar) HAVE (GOT) (= tener)HAVE (= tomar) THINK (= creer, opinar)THINK (= pensar) SEE (= ver - sentido)SEE (= ver – al médico…)
