Action Verb: What Is It and How Do I Understand It?
Action verbs are verbs that are used to describe a specific job or activity. In the sentence, there is a subject who performs the task and an object who is influenced by the request. These verbs are also referred to as transitive verbs because they take an object as their subject.
Specifically, action verbs respond to the questions of “what” and “who”. As a result, by asking these questions to verbs, it is possible to identify if they are action verbs or not such as delete, tell, clean, write, take, lift, and drink.
The following are some examples of sentences with action verbs:
I watched as my mother threw the stone she was holding into the water.
