Verbs
and types

The
actions verbs are mainly divided into two parts just as shown in the below
table.

In
this post you are going to learn the first type of verbs which is Finite verbs.
This verb is the most important verb. This type of verbs are mainly used in the
sentences we use for our daily conversation.

You
may have heard your teacher saying action verbs and helping verbs. You should
not worry about these things because if you missed them in the class, you will
have these things at your finger’s tips when you have gone through this post
with concentration.

Auxiliary Verbs : This
auxiliary word can seem strange to you but this is not in reality. According to
the grammar the helping verbs are called auxiliary verbs hence it is clear to
you hopefully about the auxiliary verbs.

Now
let’s start with the auxiliary verbs which are very crucial to in English
language.

        1.   
Primary
Auxiliaries: There are some verbs in the English
language which we use as an action verb as well as an auxiliary verb too these
types of verbs are called primary auxiliary verbs.

Have
: has, have, had, having

Do :- do, does, did,

Be
          :- is, am, are, was, were, shall
be, will be, being, been

These
are the primary auxiliary verbs in English. You can use them as both an action
verb and a helping verb.

Let’s
see some examples for a better explication in this regard.

Have

As a helping verb

1.    I
have already completed my
work.

2.    She
has submitted the project but
the teacher was absent that day.

3.    All
the students had entered the
class before the bell rang.

4.    Having
been trained by the expert of Harvard University, he achieved success.

In
the above sentences ‘Have’ is used as a helping verb with its form. You can
easily recognize it

Because
there is an action verb in the past participle form just after the forms of
‘Have’.

As
an action verb

        1.    The
manager has a meeting just after the recess with an engineer.

        2.    We

        3.    I
had a face to face talk with Neha long ago at the bus stop.

        4.    The
students have exams in the upcoming month.

Here
the ‘Have’ is used as an action verb as there is no other action verb used in
the sentences after ‘Have’ forms.
