The document discusses different types of verbs: action verbs, helping verbs, and linking verbs. It provides examples of subjects and verbs in sentences. Key points include: 1) Verbs tell the action in a sentence, while subjects are the person or thing being talked about. 2) Helping verbs include forms of be, do, have and modal verbs. 3) Linking verbs show a state of being rather than a physical action, and connect the subject to additional information, such as was, is and are. 4) Examples are provided to illustrate subjects, verbs and linking verbs in sample sentences. A short quiz with answers reinforces the concepts.

This document provides a short guide to English grammar, defining key terms like parts of speech, clauses, phrases, and verb tenses and aspects. It explains that a word can be divided into a stem and inflections, and a sentence divided into a subject, predicate, object, and complement. There are two types of clauses - principal and subordinate. Parts of speech include nouns, articles, verbs, adverbs, prepositions. Verbs are classified by tense, aspect, voice, and mood.Phrasal verbs
Phrasal verbsBochica

A phrasal verb is a verb combined with a preposition or adverb that creates a meaning different from the original verb. Phrasal verbs are an important part of English but are mainly used in spoken language and informal texts, and should be avoided in academic writing. Examples are given of "to get" meaning "to obtain" or "to get together" meaning "to meet". Phrasal verbs can be transitive, requiring an object, or intransitive, not requiring an object.Gerunds and infinitives
Gerunds and infinitivesivelazco
油
This document discusses gerunds and infinitives. Gerunds are verb forms ending in "ing" that can be used as nouns, subjects, or objects. Infinitives are verb forms with "to" that can also be used as subjects or objects. Whether a verb takes a gerund or infinitive as its object depends on the specific verb. Some verbs like "enjoy" require a gerund object, while others like "want" require an infinitive object.Clause elements

Phrasal verbs are verbs combined with a preposition or adverb that create a meaning different from the original verb. They are an important part of spoken English and informal writing. Phrasal verbs can be transitive or intransitive, and transitive phrasal verbs can be separable or inseparable depending on whether the object comes before or after the particle. The placement of the object differs depending on if it is a noun or pronoun.Foundations of Grammar 3: What is a verb?

This document defines and provides examples of adjectives. It states that adjectives describe, identify, or quantify nouns and pronouns. Some common types of adjectives are descriptive adjectives, possessive adjectives, interrogative adjectives, and demonstrative adjectives. In English, adjectives typically precede the nouns they modify, but can also follow nouns with additional words between. Nouns can also sometimes function as adjectives to describe other nouns. The document notes that in some languages, adjectives have different forms depending on the gender and number of the noun they modify.Understanding phrasal verbs

The document defines conjugating a verb as changing its form from the infinitive (e.g. to eat) to agree with the subject and tense, such as "I eat" or "they slept". There are six subjects in English (I, you, he/she/it, we, you plural, they) that determine the verb form. If asked to conjugate a verb, one lists all its forms for a given tense, such as the six forms of "to be" in the present tense (I am, you are, etc.). Regular verbs follow patterns, while irregular verbs must be memorized due to not following patterns.Phrasal verbs presentation

Predicate adjectives (PAs) and predicate nouns (PNs) are words that follow linking verbs and describe the subject of the sentence. Linking verbs connect the subject to another word by expressing a state of being rather than an action. Common linking verbs include forms of be, seem, become, and feel. PAs are adjectives that describe the subject, while PNs are nouns that rename the subject. Both PAs and PNs only follow linking verbs and not action verbs.Plural possessive contractions nouns

This document discusses verbs and their functions in sentences. It defines verbs as words that express actions or states of being. Verbs can be either action verbs or linking verbs. The tense of a verb indicates when the action occurs - present, past, or future. Helping verbs are used along with main verbs to indicate tense. Common helping verbs include forms of "be", "have", and "do". Verb forms change based on person, number, and tense. Examples are provided to illustrate verb usage and conjugations. Activities are included to identify verbs in sentences and passages.Appositives

Verbs can express actions or states and come in several types including action, linking, and auxiliary verbs. Action verbs are either transitive or intransitive depending on whether they take a direct object, while linking verbs connect the subject to additional information about it. Subject-verb agreement dictates that the verb must match the subject in number, with singular subjects taking singular verbs and plural subjects taking plural verbs.Tugas morfosintaksis relasi gramatikal 1 dan 2

This document discusses grammatical relations and their morphological mapping. It begins by defining key terms like predicates, arguments, thematic roles, and lexical entries. It then explains that:
1. Thematic roles (theta-roles) represent semantic relations between a predicate and its arguments. There is a small set of syntactically relevant theta-roles like Agent, Patient, etc.
2. Verbs are associated with required theta-roles in their lexical entries to ensure they appear in the correct syntactic frames.
3. Phrase structure rules associate theta-roles with noun phrases. The tree structure shows how theta-roles are mapped from verbs to their arguments.Tugas morfo lengkap

The document discusses several grammatical functions including subject, object, indirect object, and complement. It defines a subject as the grammatical forms that can function as the subject of a sentence, such as noun phrases. It distinguishes between grammatical, logical, and thematic subjects. Objects are defined as following directly after the verb and can become the subject of a passive sentence. Indirect objects can occur as oblique objects and are usually optional. Complements describe attributes of the subject or ascribe a state.More Related Content

The document discusses the key parts of a sentence - the subject, verb, and verb phrase. It defines a subject as the main character or thing doing an action or linking verb. A verb is used to describe an action or state of being and shows what the subject is doing. A verb phrase contains the verb and any direct or indirect objects but not the subject. The document also distinguishes between action verbs, which show physical or mental actions, and linking verbs such as is, are, was, were, which express a state of being.Run On Sentences

PossessivesBonnie Smith
油
Singular and plural possessive nouns show possession or ownership. To form a singular possessive, add an apostrophe and 's' to the singular noun. For plural nouns ending in 's', add only an apostrophe after the 's' to show possession. For plural nouns not ending in 's', add an apostrophe and 's'. Some nouns are exceptions and do not change in the plural form or when made possessive.Correcting Run Ons

- Semicolons are used to join two independent clauses without using a conjunction. There is no need for conjunctions with semicolons. Semicolons are best used when the clauses are related.
- Commas must be used together with conjunctions like "and", "or", and "but" to join two independent clauses. Using only a comma or only a conjunction is not enough.
