Lesson 10

Parts of Speech - Verbs

 

Sometimes verb phrases are separated by words called adverbs. We will learn more about adverbs in later lessons. They are used often with verbs; however, they are not considered part of the verb phrase. What are the verb phrases in the three sentences? Are the verbs action verbs or state of being verbs?

 

1. You have not helped your father today.

 

2. I will soon be home.

 

3. The child had suddenly choked on the food.
