VERBS OF BEING

9/22/2020

0 Comments

 
Action verbs are not the only verbs found in sentences! There are other verbs that are slightly more difficult to find because they simply show "being." For instance, in the sentence "He is an actor," the verb "is" merely forms a way to connect the subject "He" to the subject complement "actor." It does not show an action, but it is still a verb!

The verbs of being are:
​

am            was              be                   have              do              shall             will             can            may
is              were             being              has                does           should          would         could        might
are                                been                had               did                                                                        must

Now try your hand at creating sentences that contain a verb of being in each one. List your sentences in the comments section below. It is also a good idea to memorize these verbs (I did!), and to this end, I have listed them for you in groups that make it easier to remember!
