Verbs can be divided into several categories according to their meaning and function, and I will briefly tell you about it:
A verb in the sense of a substance is a verb that describes a specific action, state, or event, such as "to run", "to believe", "to exist", and so on.
Conjunctive verbs are used to connect the subject with its supplementary explanation, indicating what the subject is like, such as "is", "looks", "becomes".
Auxiliary verbs are to help verbs express tenses, voice, mood, etc., such as "have", "would", "can".
Modal verbs are used to express concepts such as possibility, ability, and permission, such as "must", "should", and "may".
Let's talk about the relationship between verb and object:
Transitive verbs must have a direct object to fully express the meaning, such as "give", "tell", "repair", etc.
Intransitive verbs are those that do not require a direct object to fully express their meaning, such as "run", "sleep", "die", etc.
There are also those that can be used as both transitives and intransitives, such as "playing", "reading", and "writing".
Finally, let's talk about the role of verbs in sentences
A predicate verb is a verb that is a predicate in a sentence, which can be a single verb or a verb phrase.
This is just a general introduction to verb classification, and each classification has its own specific usage and rules. By understanding these categories, you will be able to grasp verbs better, speak and write more accurately and fluently. When studying, read more example sentences and do more exercises, so that you can better understand and remember!
