1 VERBS What is a verb? Page 92

2 Definition: A verb is a word used to express an action, a condition, or a state of being. Action Verbs Linking Verbs Helping Verbs with Verb Phrases

3 Action Verbs An action verb tells what its subject does.
Actions are either physical or mental Physical: The roller coaster climbs up a hill. Mental: Some people hate amusement parks.

4 Action verbs are complemented by a direct object or indirect object.
Direct objects ask... Indirect objects ask… (Direct/Indirect objects are always nouns or pronouns!)

5 Review: Evel Knieval gained much fame.
Knieval taught his son some stunts. Knieval gave his fans a thrill. He performed dangerous stunts on a motorcycle.

6 Action Verbs: Transitive & Intransitive
An action verb that has a direct object is a transitive verb. An action verb that does not have a direct object is an intransitive verb. He crashed a lot.

8 Linking Verbs A linking verb links its subject to a word in the predicate. The most common linking verbs are forms of the verb “be.”

9 Linking Verbs Forms of be be, is, am, are, was, were, been, being
Verbs that express condition appear, become, feel, grow, look, remain, smell, sound, taste

10 The word that a linking verb connects its subject to is called a subject complement.
Paul Revere’s mount was a saddle horse. The mare seemed very fast.

11 Predicates A predicate noun is a noun that follows a linking verb and identifies, renames, or defines the subject. A predicate adjective is an adjective that follows a linking verb and modifies the subject.
