Hello guys. So today's lesson is going to be about action or linking verbs.
- 00:07 - 00:12
Okay, so we're gonna see the story in class that talks about action verbs mainly.
- 00:12 - 00:18
So a verb that shows what the subject does or is um is a verb.
- 00:18 - 00:19
Okay,
- 00:19 - 00:22
so we're going to learn how to determine which
- 00:22 - 00:26
verb is an action verb or a linking verb.
- 00:26 - 00:30
So expressed physical or mental action. That would be an action verb.
- 00:31 - 00:33
The chronic think,
- 00:34 - 00:35
actions.
- 00:35 - 00:39
Um they're these can be physical or mental. Can you try to give an example?
- 00:40 - 00:45
As you can see here? I provided some examples. The owls hooted all night.
- 00:45 - 00:49
Greg sympathizers, sympathizers. Sorry, with this, with his daughters.
- 00:49 - 00:51
Fear of the dark
- 00:51 - 00:55
Gloria plays with the Children. As you can see we have sympathizers.
- 00:55 - 01:01
We have hooted, we have place, we have teachers, we have now and we have likes.
- 01:02 - 01:03
Mhm.
- 01:03 - 01:07
Okay.
- 01:07 - 01:11
And as you can see, okay,
- 01:12 - 01:16
um we have sometimes some action.
- 01:16 - 01:18
Some verbs can be, you know,
- 01:18 - 01:22
either action verbs or linking verbs before we move to that.
- 01:22 - 01:25
Let's see what are the linking verbs,
- 01:25 - 01:28
linking verbs or linking verb connects the
- 01:28 - 01:31
subject to a description in the President.
- 01:31 - 01:34
As you can see, it's like more like a bridge.
- 01:35 - 01:40
So here we have uh the linking verbs work like equal science.
- 01:41 - 01:44
20% of 360.
- 01:45 - 01:48
of 300 equals 60.
- 01:50 - 01:53
Okay,
- 01:53 - 01:56
so now,
- 01:56 - 02:01
as you can see here we have some uh these
- 02:01 - 02:05
um let's say a list of verbs can be sometimes action
- 02:06 - 02:11
or linking verbs sensory verbs look, smell sound, taste, feel
- 02:11 - 02:18
and appear grow become turned remain seen. How can you tell read the sentence
- 02:19 - 02:20
if the verb is linking,
- 02:20 - 02:25
it can be replaced by another simple linking verb like um is or are
- 02:25 - 02:30
for example the horse looks healthy. We can simply say the horses is healthy.
- 02:30 - 02:33
Then luck looks in here is a linking verb
- 02:34 - 02:36
sounds like you.
- 02:36 - 02:37
Yeah.
- 02:37 - 02:41
Okay, here we have more examples of linking verbs.
- 02:42 - 02:51
So we have um is or have has had and so on. You can see here I am a photograph.
- 02:51 - 02:54
Um is a linking verb. It does not show any action or
- 02:55 - 02:58
a mental activity. He has been sick,
- 02:59 - 03:01
husband is a linking verb
- 03:01 - 03:03

Okay, so now guys,
