TYPES OF VERBS

• Transitive & Intransitive verbs

• Regular and Irregular verbs

• Finite and Non-Finite verbs

• Auxiliary verbs

• Stative verbs

• Modal verbs

TRANSITIVE VERBS Express an action directed toward a person, a

place, a thing, or an idea (a.k.a., nouns)

The action passes from the doer (the subject) to the receiver of the action.

The words that receive the action of transitive verbs direct objects always nouns

Transitive verbs can only be action verbs. Linking verbs are NEVER transitive.

TRANSITIVE VERBS EX.

• Derrick greeted the visitors.Derrick greeted whom? The action

(greeted) passes from the subject (Derrick) to the object (visitors).

• When will Felicia paint her room?Felicia will paint what? The action

(will paint) passes from the subject (Felicia) to the object (room).

INTRANSITIVE VERBS

• Express action or tell something about the subject without the action passing to a receiver, or object

• Intransitive verbs may be either action or linking verbs.

INTRANSITIVE VERBS EX.

• The train stopped.• The train stopped what? There is nothing

in the sentence to say what the train stopped (i.e., there is no object). There is no transfer of action.

• Last night we ate on the patio.• We ate what? There is nothing in the

sentence to say what we ate (i.e., there is no object). We did not eat some “on the patio.” This is a prepositional phrase telling where we ate, not what. There is no transfer of action.

REGULAR VERBS

• A verb that forms its past tense & present

participle by adding. –d or –ed

• Or in some cases –t to the base form (which

is known as weak verb).

EX. OF BASE FORM

Walk

Laugh

Listen

Believe

EXPAMPLES Examples of –s form

If I have a thousand ideas and only one turns out to be good, I am satisfied.“

Examples of –ed Form

I've searched all the parks in all the cities and found no statues of committees.

Examples of –ing Form

I've always been trying hard to give the best and got the best result after being rewarded.

IRREGULAR VERBS A verb that does not follow the

usual rules for verb forms

Verbs in English are irregular if they don't have a conventional -ed ending (like asked or ended)

Example:1. Throughout my career I swam for form. Speed came as a result.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN REGULAR AND IREEGULAR Those verbs that form their past

participle with ‘d’ or ‘ed’ are regular verbs.

PRESENT TENSE                          PAST TENSE

Share                                                   Shared

Scare                                                   Scared

PAST VERBS

Those verbs that undergo substantial changes when changing forms between tenses are irregular verbs.

PRESENT TENSE        PAST TENSE                     Go              Went                       Run         Ran

FINITE VERB Verbs which have the past or the

present If there is just one verb in a sentence, it is finite. Finite verbs are sometimes called tensed verbs.

Examples of Finite Verb

1.Drive a car. [1st person, singular, present tense]2. He drives a car. [3rd person, singular. present tense]

form are called FINITE verbs

INFINITE VERB

Verbs in any other form (infinitive, -ing or -ed) are called Infinite Verbs.

EXAMPLES

My sister spoke French on holiday

Leaving home can be very traumatic

It took courage to continue after the accident

Nonfinite

AUXILARY VERBS• Also called helping verbs. They have no

meaning on their own. They are necessary for the grammatical structure of a sentence, but they do not tell us very much alone. We usually use helping verbs with main verbs. They "help" the main verb (which has the real meaning).

• There are only about 15 helping verbs in English, and we divide them into two basic groups:

• Primary helping verbs (3 verbs). These are the verbs be, do, and have.

• Note that we can use these three verbs as helping verbs or as main verbs.

PRIMARY AUXILARY VERBS

Uses of “be”

1. Simple Questions

• We create simple yes/no questions by inverting the order of subject and the “To be” verb.

• Is your brother taller than you? • Were they embarrassed by the comedian?• The same inversion takes place when “To be” is

combined with verbs in the progressive: • Is it snowing in the mountains? • Were your children driving home this weekend?

SOME STATIVE VERBS

like know belonglove please fithate suppose containneed understand seemagree remember matterown appear soundhear astonish denysatisfy promise surprise

MODAL VERBS

A modal verb (also modal, modal auxiliary verb, modal auxiliary) is a type of auxiliary verb that is used to indicate modality – that is, likelihood, ability, permission, and obligation.

MEANING OF MODAL VERBS

Two typical sequences of evolution of modal meanings are:

Internal mental ability → internal ability → root possibility (internal or external ability) → permission and epistemic possibility

obligation → probability

EXAMPLES

Examples include the English verbs can/could, may/might, must, will/would, and shall/should.

You shall not pass. You should stop that. She can really sing. That may be a problem Sam must go to school
