  3. Verbs, Day Two 11-29-18

  4. Today... • Today, we are going to talk about two more type of verbs • So let’s get started!

  5. Verbs • The first type of verb we are going to talk about is a linking verb • A linking verb is a verb that connects a word at or near the beginning of a sentence with a word at or near the end • The easiest way to see this is to use the verb form of be (the most common linking verb) • For example: • She is hungry. • Our subject of this sentence is she • The linking verb here is be (is) • Be (the linking verb) connects the beginning to the end (hungry)

  6. Verbs • Not only forms of be can be used as a linking verb • In fact, there are many verbs that function as linking verbs • To find out whether or not a verb is functioning as a linking verb, you should be able to replace the verb with am, are, or is logically • Try it! • I taste the red pepper. • Apollo 13 appears ready. • The runner grew tired. • He grew some hair.

  7. Linking Verbs Practice Using forms of “be,” create three sentences. Here are some phrases you could use: • Am • Are • Is • Were • Am being • Will be • Would be • Must have been • Would have been

  8. NOTE! • The verb form of be is not always used as a linking verb • Sometimes it just expresses existence of some sort • This existence is expressed by telling where something is located • For example: • Here is your ticket. • The remote should be on the couch.

  9. Verbs • The second type of verb we are talking about today is a helping verb • Helping verbs are verbs that can be added to another verb to make a single verb phrase • Helping verbs can be forms of be, but there are more than just that! • Here are some examples: • They might sing in the morning. • She should have done her homework.

  10. Helping Verbs • Helping verbs can also be known as auxiliary verbs • This is because they add meaning to other verbs • Sometimes, helping verbs can change the meaning of the sentence • Let’s do some practice

  11. Helping Verb Practice Identify the helping verbs in the following sentences. • Did you hear about the Apollo 13 mission? • Many journalists have written about this historic flight. • People will be talking about it for years to come. • They could survive in the lunar module for 45 hours. • After 95 hours in the module, all supplies should have been exhausted.
