Verbs express action or a state of being or condition. They add punch or power to a sentence

He pushed through the door. (action)

My client filed a formal complaint. (action)

Generally, a verb is a linking verb if it can be substituted for some form of the verb seem.

The most common linking verb is be and its form am, is, are, was, were, being, and been.

  • appear
  • become
