Verbs
Verbs are part of life. Verbs make us live and exist in this world. Verbs are the best.
Verbs vary by type, and each type is determined by the kinds of words
that follow it and the relationship those words have with the verb
itself. There are six types: intransitive, transitive, infinitives,
to-be verbs, and two-place transitive (Vg- verb give), and two-place
transitive (Vc- verb consider).
Vg verbs (named after the verb give) precede either two noun phrases or a noun phrase and then a prepositional phrase often led by to or for. For example: "The players gave their teammates high fives." "The players gave high fives to their teammates."
When two noun phrases follow a transitive verb, the first is an
indirect object, that which is receiving something, and the second is a
direct object, that being acted upon. Indirect objects can be noun
phrases or prepositional phrases.
The verb be is manifested in eight forms: be, is, am, are, was, were, been, and being.
These verbs precede nouns or adjectives in a sentence, which become
predicate nouns and predicate adjectives similar to those that function
with a linking verb. They can also be followed by an adverb of place,
which is sometimes referred to as a predicate adverb. For example: "Her
daughter was a writing tutor." "The singers were very nervous." "My house is down the street."
Verbs really improve the life of a human like me. Verbs also help us in communicating with others.
