class has a lot of types, like modal verbs,
auxiliary verbs and linking verbs. However,
this evening we will just focus on the three
types of verbs which are the action verb,
auxiliary verbs and linking verb”
“The first type of verb is the action verb,
Please Ms. Taunan read the definition of
an action verb” “Action verbs, as their name says, are
used to refer to actions. These can refer to
physical actions that are performed with
bodies or objects, such as jump, hit, or
sing, or mental actions that we use our
brains to perform, such as think, consider,
or memorize.”
“Okay, thank you, Ms. Taunan. When we
say action verbs class, these are the words
that refers to physical actions. When we
say physical?” “tells about observable actions, ma’am”
“What do you think are the example of it?” “dance ma’am”
“what else?” “swim, jump ma’am”
“very good, class. So always remember
that when you encounter a words like “action verb, ma’am”
jump, swim, dance, this is an?”
“Good! The next type of verb that we will “ma’am, Auxiliary means providing

any idea what does auxiliary mean, Ms. support.”
Molate?”
“very good! So when we say auxiliary verb “a verb that is used with another verb,
it is an?” ma’am”
“yes, an Auxiliary verb typically come
before the main verb in a sentence, please
read the example”
Ex. The musician has performed in “Ex. The musician has performed in
concerts all over the world. concerts all over the world.”
“What do you think is the auxiliary verb in “has ma’am”
the sentence?”
“very good! The auxiliary verb is HAS “the word has come before the verb
because?” ma’am”
“very good!”
“kindly read the examples of an auxiliary “ex. Auxiliary verbs include forms of
verb class” “have” (has, have, had), “do” (does, do,
ex. Auxiliary verbs include forms of “have” did), and “be” (be, am, is, are, was, were,
(has, have, had), “do” (does, do, did), and being, been) can, could, will, would, shall,
“be” (be, am, is, are, was, were, being, should, may, might and must.”
been) can, could, will, would, shall, should,
may, might and must.
“okay next, the last type of verb that we will
tackle is the linking verb. From the word
itself linking, what does it mean class?” “connecting something ma’am”
“very good! Please read the definition of
the linking verb class” “Linking verbs are verbs that don't show
an action but rather describe the subject.
Linking verbs are used to link a subject
with a subject complement. A subject
complement describes or identifies the
subject of the sentence or clause. Linking
verbs can function as intransitive verbs,
which do not take direct objects.”
“So, in brief explanation class, linking verbs
are those verbs that don’t really show the
action and it only describes the subject.
For you to understand it better, Please
read the example “
Ex. That gold watch looks expensive “Ex. That gold watch looks expensive.”
“what do you think is the linking verb in the “looks, ma’am”
sentence?”
“very good, looks. It is because the word “watch ma’am”
LOOKS describe the subject and the
subject is?”
“very good. Did you understand it class?” “yes, ma’am”
“please read the examples of linking verbs
class”
Ex. Am, is, are, was, were, seems, “ Ex. Am, is, are, was, were, seems,
become, remain, grow, am, appear, been, become, remain, grow, am, appear, been,
become, be, seem, stay, sound, smell, was become, be, seem, stay, sound, smell,
and were was and were “
“do you have any questions class before “none, Ma’am”
we proceed?”
“okay, good!”
“I have here sentences class, what you’re
going to do is to guess the verbs used if it
is an action verb, auxiliary verb and linking
verb”
1. She looks stunning. “Linking verb ma’am”
2. He can swim. “Auxiliary verb ma’am”
3. The diamonds appeared to be “Linking verb ma’am”
genuine.
