EXPLAIN
Observation is one of the greatest powers in the
universe

Hi kids, today we will learn about

Verbs and the different ways they are
formed. After that, we will learn
about the two types of verbs: Main
Verbs and Helping Verbs.

At the end of the lesson, you will be

able to identify the types of verbs
and use them correctly in sentences.
1. VERBS

DEFINITION
Verbs are words or group of words that
refer to actions and states (including our
thoughts and feelings).

EXAMPLE

I have to
finish this
I think you by today.
can do it.
Let me help
you.

Classification of Verbs:

1 According to their functions in a sentence:

 Main Verbs.
 Helping Verbs.
 Transitive, intransitive, ditransitive and
complex Verbs.
8

 Action verbs.
 Linking verbs.
 Sensing verbs.
 Feeling verbs.
 Mental verbs.
 Verbs of possession.

3 According to how they are formed:

 Infinitives.
 Regular verbs.
 Irregular verbs.

2. MAIN VERBS

DEFINITION
Main verbs express the action or state of
the subject. Without a main verb, a
sentence will be incomplete. Main verbs are
sometimes called lexical verbs.

EXAMPLE

Good idea! Jhus has

written me a letter
the other day.

Let’s write
a letter to
our pen pal, I wrote her a
Jhus. letter a week
ago. She
should have
received it by
now,

Copyright © 2017-18 Winspark Innovations Learning Pvt. Ltd. All rights reserved.
A main verb changes its form according to its
subject.
Types of Subject Examples

Singular Grizzi lives in Black Desert.

Grizzi and her family live in Black
Plural
Desert.
First person I live in Black Desert.
Second person You live in Black Desert.
Third person She lives in Black Desert.

A main verb also changes its form according to the

tense.
Types of Subject Examples

Simple present tense Daka cleans his room daily.

Simple past tense Daka cleaned his room yesterday.
Present continuous
Daka is cleaning his room now.
tense
Past continuous Daka was cleaning his room when the
tense telephone rang.
Present perfect
Daka has cleaned his room.
tense
Daka said he had cleaned his room last
Past perfect tense
week.
3 . Future
H E Ltense
P I N G V E R BDaka
S will clean his room tomorrow.

DEFINITION
Helping verbs are usually used before
verbs. Helping verbs are sometimes called
auxiliary verbs. Some helping verbs may be
used as main verbs. Helping verbs can be
categorised into primary helping verbs and
modal helping verbs.

You should
Oh yes! I
send the email
have done
before the
so!
meeting
starts.

The verbs be, have, and do are primary helping verbs.

1 Be is used to form the continuous or future

continuous tenses and passive voice.
The fish is swimming in the pond.
Ammu and Simba will be joining us in the
afternoon.
2 Have is used to form the perfect tense.

Zinka has completed her research on volcanoes.

Zoka and Zepo have travelled to many countries to
film documentaries.

3 Do is used to form negative sentences or questions

and to show emphasis.
Pemba does not like to watch horror movies.
Do you want to visit Shallow Creek?
I did enjoy the musical very much!

The table shows how these primary helping verbs change in the
simple present tense and simple past tense.

Verb Simple Present Tense Simple Past Tense

Be Am, is are Was, were

Have Has, have Had

do Does, do Did

Copyright © 2017-18 Winspark Innovations Learning Pvt. Ltd. All rights reserved.
Be, have and do often act as main verbs too.

REMEMBER

EXAMPLE

Lizzie is a beautiful ballerina.

She has ballet lessons every Monday.
She does modern dance too!

DEFINITION
Modal helping verbs are used before the
base form of verbs to help express meanings
such as ability, possibility, permission
and obligation.

Can, could, shall, should, would, must, ought to, will,

may and might.

EXAMPLE

The one-year old toddler can walk on his own already!

All of us ought to do our part to save the earth.
Roxy may join us if she has nothing else going on.

• Main verbs or lexical verbs express the

action or state of the subject.
SUMMARY • Helping verbs or auxiliary verbs are usually
used before main verbs.

7 I S I T A L I N K I N G V E R B ? – To find out if a verb is a
linking verb or not, we should try to find out if we
can replace the verb with an ‘equal to’ sign (=) and
see if the sentence makes sense. If so, then the verb
is a linking verb. Find out if the underlined verb in
these sentences is a linking verb:

Hi kids, today we will learn about

another topic on Verbs called Regular
and Irregular verbs.

At the end of the lesson, you will be

able to identify these forms of verbs
and use them correctly in sentences.

1. REGULAR VERBS

DEFINITION
Most verbs are regular. We can add endings
such as –s, -ed and –ing to change their
forms.

EXAMPLE

I explored the I went to

Brown Plateau the Black
during the Desert. It
term break. was
How about you? splendid!

For regular verbs that end in –e, we only add –d to form

its simple past tense form.
 Move → moved
 Advise → advised

Copyright © 2017-18 Winspark Innovations Learning Pvt. Ltd. All rights reserved.
Here are some samples of how regular verbs are
changed.

Clap Clap/claps Clapped Clap Clapped

Sum Sum/sum Summed Summing Summed

Jot Jot/jots Jotted Jotting Jotted

For regular verbs that end in –y we remove –y and add –

ied to form its simple past tense form.
 Carry → carried
 Bury → buried
For verbs that end with a short vowel sound and a
consonant, we double the consonant and add –ed. However,
there are several exceptions to this rule, such as “cut”
and “set”.
 Crop → cropped

2. IRREGULAR VERBS
DEFINITION
Irregular verbs are those that form their
simple past tense and past participles in
different ways.

Copyright © 2017-18 Winspark Innovations Learning Pvt. Ltd. All rights reserved.
Here are some samples of irregular verbs-.

same as its simple past tense form.

The past participles of some irregular verbs are formed
by adding –en or
-n.

tense and past participle form. Here are some examples:

Hi kids, today we will learn about

another topic on Verbs called
Transitive, Intransitive and
Ditransitive Verbs.

At the end of the lesson, you will be

able to identify these forms of verbs
and use them correctly in sentences.

1. TRANSITIVE, INTRANSITIVE,
DITRANSITIVE VERBS

EXAMPLE

You mean I You broke.

broke my
spectacles
?

DEFINITION
Transitive verbs are verbs which take
objects. The action described by the verb
is done to the object. Sentences with
transitive verbs are incomplete without an
object. A transitive verb needs an object
to make sense.

101

Captain Spark wrote.

Captain Spark wrote a story.

I threw.

I threw the rubbish away.

All of us painted.

All of us painted the mural.

DEFINITION
Intransitive verbs are verbs which do not
take an object. The sentences make sense
even without an object.

 The boy sneezed.

 My cat died.
 The guests have arrived.

DEFINITION
Ditransitive verbs are verbs which take two
objects a direct object and an indirect
object.

 He gives the homeless food.

 Diva asked her teacher a
