Lesson 13

Parts of Speech - Verbs

We can change the form of a verb. (These changes in form are used in conjugations. We will talk about conjugations in later lessons.)  For example, a verb can have an s added to it as in eat, eats or run, runs.  Other changes could be eating, ate, or eaten for the verb eat.  Run could be changed to running, or ran.  Irregular verbs which we will cover later have several confusing changes.

 
 
 

Instructions:  Find the verb or verb phrasesWhen a verb is more than one word, it is called a verb phrase. Verb phrases can be two, three, or four words. Verb phrases are made by using auxiliary or helping verbs.
