1. Transitive Verbs: These verbs need a direct object to complete their meaning. For example:
* "I ate the apple." ("Ate" is the transitive verb, and "apple" is the direct object.)
2. Intransitive Verbs: These verbs do not need a direct object. For example:
* "The dog slept." ("Slept" is the intransitive verb, and there is no direct object.)
3. "Verb to be" (copula): This verb acts as a connector between a subject and a predicate. For example:
* "She is a doctor." ("Is" connects "she" to "doctor").
