This ESL grammar lesson introduces verbs as “action words”. Students practice circling the verbs in each sentence.
Verbs are a fundamental part of English grammar, representing actions, states, or occurrences. Understanding how verbs function and how to use them correctly is essential for mastering English. This guide provides a comprehensive overview of verbs, focusing on their basic functions, forms, and usage in sentences.
In English, verbs are words that describe actions (e.g., “run,” “write”), states of being (e.g., “is,” “seem”), or occurrences (e.g., “happen,” “become”). They are crucial for constructing sentences and conveying meaning.
To enhance your understanding of verbs, we offer practice exercises that cover different verb forms and their usage in sentences. These exercises will help reinforce your knowledge and improve your ability to use verbs correctly.
