Verbs

A verb is a word that names an action or a state of being. Every sentence has at least one verb. An action verb shows an action that the  subject does.
        Flowers grow in the window box.
Verbs that show state of being are linking verbs. A linking verb links a noun with another noun or pronoun, of with an adjective that describes the noun. Common linking verbs include: is, am, are, was, and were.
        Pansies are Alice's favorite flowers. (Are links Pansies and flowers.)
        A pansy is colorful. (Is links pansy and colorful.)
Some verbs are used as helping verbs with other verbs. Can, must, will, shall, were, have, should, and must are some common helping verbs.
        Everyone can see the flowers from the street.
        Flowers were sold at the market.

Every verb has important forms called principal parts. The following chart names the three principal parts and gives examples of some verbs.
Present Tense: look,    use,    see,    find
Past Tense: looked,    used,    saw,    found
Past Participle: looked,    used,    seen,    found

A regular verb is one whose past tense and past participle are both formed by adding -ed or -d to the present tense form. Look and use, for example, are regular verbs. 
An irregular verb is one whose principal parts do not follow this pattern. see and find are irregular verbs.
