verbs
Words denoting action
Verbs are the part of speech that express action, occurrence, or state of being—the engine of a sentence.
In She runs, It happened, and They exist, the verbs carry what's being asserted.
English verbs conjugate for tense, person, and number, though less elaborately than in many languages.
Verb also works as a verb: Don't verb that noun objects to turning other parts of speech into verbs, a common process in English.
