What do verbs describe?

Verbs describe actions, states of being, or occurrences.

Here's a breakdown:

* Actions: Verbs often describe things that are done, such as "run", "jump", "eat", "write", "sing".

* States of being: Verbs can also describe conditions or states of existence, like "be", "seem", "feel", "appear", "exist".

* Occurrences: Verbs can describe events that happen naturally, such as "rain", "snow", "grow", "change".

Examples:

* Action: The bird flies across the sky.

* State of being: She feels happy.

* Occurrence: The sun rises in the east.

Verbs are essential to building complete sentences, as they provide the action or state of being that the subject of the sentence is performing or experiencing.
