There are several ways to identify a verb in a sentence:
1. The most common is "to":
* To run, to eat, to sleep, to dream
2. Auxiliary verbs (helping verbs):
* Will you go?
* Do you like it?
* Has she finished?
* Are they coming?
3. Verb phrases:
* Is going to rain
* Has been working hard
4. Word order:
* Often, verbs follow the subject in a sentence. For example:
* The dog barks
* The students study
Important Note: Even though "to" is used to form infinitives, it doesn't always mean a verb is coming. For example, in "He went to the store," "to" is a preposition.
