What do verbs show?

Verbs are the action words of language. They show what is happening, what is being done, or what state something is in.

Here's a breakdown of what verbs show:

* Action: They describe physical or mental actions.

* Examples: "run," "jump," "think," "write"

* State of Being: They describe a condition or state of existence.

* Examples: "be," "seem," "feel," "appear"

* Possession: They indicate ownership or having something.

* Examples: "have," "own," "contain"

* Change: They describe a transformation or alteration.

In essence, verbs are the backbone of sentences. They are essential for expressing actions, states, and relationships between subjects and objects.
