VERBS PART 1

Good morning boys!

At the end of the lesson, you will be able to:

• define and identify different types of verbs
• demonstrate correct usage of verbs
• identify and use action and being verbs

Today, we are going to learn about verbs.

A verb is used to say or assert something about a person or thing.              

It says what a person or thing does, what a person or thing is, 

or what a person or thing has.

A verb denotes doing, being and possessing.

Last year, we learned about these three kinds of verbs 👆

Note: A verb may consist of:

a) One word

Example- The boy sleeps

                        OR

b) A number of words

Example- The patient has been advised to rest by the doctor.

TASK 1 C.W: Underline the verbs in the following story

(Do Ex. B on page 61 in the Grammar textbook )👇

           

Today, we will be recapitulating about doing/action words and being verbs

ACTION/DOING VERBS

Look at the following image:

Words like walk, run laugh , read etc express actions. They are doing (or action) words.

They tell us what persons or things do. Doing words are called verbs.

Watch this video below to understand action verbs better 👇

                                      

BEING VERBS

Look at the image below and read the sentence out aloud:

    The          dinosaur        is         big

                                                  verb       adjective

The word is does not tell us what the dinosaur does. So it is not a doing verb. But it helps to say what the dinosaur is. 

There are other words also which help us to say or assert what a person or thing is. These words are also verbs.

Is, are, am, was, were, will be, shall be, are important verbs of this kind. These words often have an adjective after them and are called as being verbs.

Is, are, am refer to present time or are used to make general statements.

Was, were refer to the past time.

Will be, shall be refer to the future time.
